Housing Performance

Tenant Satisfaction Measures (TSM)

The Government has introduced new Tenant Satisfaction Measures (TSMs) which are designed to assess and monitor how well social landlords are doing in providing good quality homes and services.

The Council will:

  • Annually submit our performance against the Tenant Satisfaction Measures (TSM's) to the Regulator of Social Housing.
  • Annually publish our performance against the Tenant Satisfaction Measures (TSM's) on our website and in publications.

In total there are 22 Tenant Satisfaction Measures (TSMs):

  • 10 Landlord Measures – based on information we hold in our systems.
  • 12 Tenant Perception Measures – based on a tenant perception survey of a sample of our tenants.

The Tenant Satisfaction Measures (TSMs) relate to five areas:

  • Keeping homes in good repair: We want to know if your home is in good condition and if it is getting the repairs it needs.
  • Maintaining building safety: We want to know if your home is safe and if it meets all the safety standards.
  • Being respectful and helpful: We want to know if we are respectful and helpful when you need us.
  • Effective handling of complaints: We want to know if we are handling your complaints quickly and fairly.
  • Responsible neighbourhood management: We want to know if we are managing your neighbourhood well and if we are keeping it safe and clean.
