About the Fund

Blackoak Capital is seeking to raise $100 million of equity for its second Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA) Fund (Blackoak Capital’s seventh fund)

The strategic investment objective is to build a diversified investment portfolio of single storey houses and villas for people eligible for funding via the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) for SDA, a Commonwealth Government funded scheme. The current demand for high-quality housing significantly exceeds supply, especially in Western Australia. Using our experience in the sector we aim to build our portfolio to meet that demand.

SDA is specialist residential accommodation designed to create a physical environment to house people with high support needs and access requirements registered with the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) in Australia.

The Fund will target an average income distribution of c. 10% per annum together with long-term capital growth. Cash distributions will commence after construction and successful leasing of the properties.
