Tenant Satisfaction Measures

Tenant Satisfaction Measures are a new way of measuring the performance of social landlords. They have been introduced to monitor how well we’re doing at providing quality homes and services, and to understand how we can make improvements.

We’ve worked with Viewpoint to collect our customers’ feedback about how we’re doing. This is included in our Tenant Satisfaction Measures alongside other performance data. Thank you to all our customers that shared their thoughts and experiences.

Viewpoint will continue to contact our customers approximately every two years to complete a Tenant Satisfaction Measures survey. We really appreciate you sharing your feedback.

Our results for 2023-24

Here’s our results for each Tenant Satisfaction Measures theme. This includes Tenant Perception Measures, Anti-social behaviour, Complaints, Building safety and Decent Homes Standards. We’ll use the feedback and data to understand what’s going well, and where we need to make changes to improve our services.

We’ve engaged Housemark to understand the sector’s Tenant Satisfaction Measures performance and trends. Their latest sector benchmark median for customer satisfaction is 69.4%.

We are proud to be above the benchmark, but know there is still more that we can do to increase customer satisfaction. This page includes some examples of what we’re doing to make improvements – and we’ll share more in our Annual Review later this year.

We’re pleased to have received some positive feedback about our services, and we’re proud that we’re keeping your homes safe and in good condition. The measures have also highlighted opportunities where we can make improvements. Here’s some examples of how we’re making changes:

  • We’re committed to using learning from complaints to improve our services, processes and communications, and share quarterly updates about our progress.
  • We know that the quality of our repairs service is important to our customers, and we’re pleased that many of you are satisfied with your recent repairs. We have recently completed a review of our repairs and maintenance services to understand how we can improve our offer.
  • We encourage our customers to report any anti-social behaviour, and work with our customers, the police, and local authorities to resolve cases. We use all feedback to understand how we can improve, and have some areas of focus for the year ahead. This includes improving our communication about the case management process, and ensuring that customers understand they can contact us if an issue re-occurs.
