New Tenant Satisfaction Measures were introduced by the Government on 1 April 2023 which are designed to help to monitor how well landlords are doing at providing quality homes and services, and to understand how they can make improvements.
There are 22 tenant satisfaction measures, which includes 12 tenant perception measures and 10 management information measures.
How data was collected for 1 April 2023 to 31 March 2024
As part of the new measures, we have been collecting data on how we are doing at completing repairs, keeping homes safe, and engaging with our customers.
Twelve of the results are from a tenant perception survey and are coded TP for tenant perception. To get this information we commissioned Viewpoint, an independent market research organisation, to carry out the survey on our behalf.
During 2023-24 they contacted 250 tenants every three months until they had achieved the required sample size of 1,000 tenants to ensure the responses were representative of our wider tenant population. With this sample size we can be 95% confident that the results are accurate to within +/-3%, which is considered statistically robust for this type of survey.
The survey was mostly carried out by telephone, with a small proportion carried out by email as we did not have a telephone number for some of the tenants selected at random.
Viewpoint managed to achieve a representative sample based on the gender, age, disability and ethnicity of our wider tenant population, as well as property types and geographical area, and so no weighting was applied to any of the results.
We’ve grouped both the results from the tenant survey and those from our management systems into common themes which we hope makes it easier to read.
We would like to thank everyone who took part in this survey. We really appreciate you taking the time to share your views and give us your feedback.
