Tenant Satisfaction Measures
From 1st April 2023, the Regulator of Social Housing introduced a new set of Tenant Satisfaction Measures (TSM’s), to assess how well social housing landlords are doing at providing good quality homes and services.
The measures are aimed at helping improve standards for people living in social housing, by:
- Providing visibility, letting tenants see how well their landlord is doing and enabling tenants to hold their landlords to account.
- Giving the Regulator insight into which landlords might need to improve things for their tenants.
There are 22 tenant satisfactions measures, covering five themes.
Ten of the TSM’s are measured by monitoring performance against a set of key standards, and 12 will be measured by carrying out tenant satisfaction perception surveys to understand what our customers think about the services we offer.
During 2023/24, we surveyed all customers and received 131 responses, across various locations, property types and age ranges to gather a broad understanding of our tenant views. Please find below supplementary information relating to our approach and the survey form used:
