What are Tenant Satisfaction Measures?

Tenant Satisfaction Measures were introduced by the Regulator of Social Housing to help residents understand how well their landlord is performing and to encourage housing providers to improve their services.

They combine feedback from residents with information about our performance in areas such as repairs, building safety, complaints and neighbourhood management. We publish our results each year so residents can see where we're doing well and where we're focusing on improvements.

These results relate to the 2025/26 reporting year.

TSM 2026, 52% Satisfaction that we make a positive contribution to neighbourhoods
TSM 2026, 61.8% Satisfaction with our approach to handling anti-social behaviour

Tenant Satisfaction Measures are just one of the ways we listen to residents. We also use feedback from our wider resident surveys, resident engagement activities, complaints, compliments and the National Resident Panel to understand what's working well and where we can do better.

Together, this feedback shapes our You Said, We Will improvement programme, which sets out the actions we're taking in response to what residents tell us.

  • Survey method: postal questionnaire
  • Survey approach: census survey (all eligible social housing households were invited to participate)
  • Responses received: 282
