The SDA HOUSING Podcast
"The SDA HOUSING Podcast" is brought to you by the team at NDIS PROPERTY AUSTRALIA. Whether you are listening as an Investor, Provider, Builder, Developer or Participant, we cover a wide range of topics informative to any audience. We discuss how we work with all stakeholders in sourcing and delivering new dwellings which are SDA compliant, to general information about the NDIS, and statistics about Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA) in the NDIS sector.
Debbie Kindness serves as the General Manager of NDIS Property Australia, bringing over two decades of experience in tourism, finance, and property. Since joining the company in mid-2020, she has been instrumental in its growth from a two-person operation to a 25-member team. Debbie's leadership has been pivotal in marketing and selling NDIS investment properties, coordinating with builders, designers, lenders, and providers to ensure the successful development of SDA properties across Australia.
Minh Le, Founder and Director of NDIS Property Australia, leads initiatives to enhance SDA across the nation. Throughout these episiodes, Minh engages with many types of stakeholders to expedite the delivery of purpose-built SDA dwellings, aiming to reduce wait times for people with disabilities. His efforts focus on promoting choice and control for SDA participants and encouraging collaboration within the NDIS community.
Together, Debbie and Minh are dedicated to providing comprehensive, ethical, and sustainable solutions in the SDA sector, ensuring that individuals with disabilities have access to suitable and supportive housing options.
We regularly have guest speakers each week from other organisations to talk about their involvement in the SDA sector, and how they contribute to the social impact of SDA, building homes that are fit-for-purpose, while giving NDIS participants the "Choice and Control" over how, where and with whom they live. As we are learning and adapting to an evolving world of SDA in the NDIS sector, we want you, our listeners, to come on the journey with us so that you too can contribute and make a social impact for People With Disabilities (PWDs).
If you would like to share your SDA journey with us, we welcome you to contact us to tell your story.

EPISODE 294 - $10M Case of NDIS Fraud & Exploitation
In this eye-opening episode, Minh & Debbie dive into the shocking case of a man who went from driving a taxi to amassing a multimillion-dollar empire—with 24 companies, some NDIS businesses—in just six years. Now under investigation by the NDIA and the Australian Federal Police (AFP), he stands accused of fraudulently claiming over $10 million from vulnerable NDIS participants while engaging in deeply unethical business practices.
We unpack the disturbing details emerging from the investigation, including harrowing firsthand accounts from participants whose lives were severely impacted by his actions. How did this happen? What safeguards failed? And what does this case reveal about oversight in the NDIS?
Join us for a critical discussion on accountability, exploitation, and the urgent need for reform.
