| Furniture | May not be included | Fully furnished rooms |
| Property quality | Can vary significantly | Professionally managed |
| Cleaning | Depends on housemates | Regular cleaning |

Trust & Safety
Shared living, without the risk
Taking a room sight-unseen is a real risk when a bad housemate can cost you sleep before a workday. Every CDA home and resident is screened and managed, so the house works around your schedule rather than against it.
Housemates on working schedules
We ID-verify and reference-check every resident, and match on lifestyle — so the people you share with keep hours compatible with early starts and video calls, not a rotating cast from a listing site.
Professionally managed homes
CDA manages each property directly, with coordinated cleaning of shared spaces and clear house standards, so the home stays in good shape long after you move in.
Repairs never become your evening
Lodge a ticket and our team handles it. No chasing a landlord between meetings or negotiating repair costs with housemates on a group chat.
Terms that flex with contracts
One fortnightly payment with all bills included and no traditional bond. Secondments, project work and interstate roles do not need a 12-month lease to accommodate them.
