Common questions

Do you have SIL vacancies?

Vacancies change often. Call us on (02) 8080 4685 to ask about current homes across Greater Sydney.

Is SIL the same as housing?

No. SIL funds the support you receive at home. Rent and living costs are paid separately, and housing may be funded through SDA if you’re eligible.

Can I visit a home before deciding?

Yes. We encourage visits so you can meet the team and housemates first.
