What are Tenant Satisfaction Measures?

There are 22 Tenant Satisfaction Measures (TSM’s). 

  • 12 customer perception measures: These show satisfaction with the services we provide, for example, how well we’ve kept communal areas clean and well maintained.
  • 10 performance measures: These show what we have done, for example, how many complaints were dealt with on time.

This page shows the 2023-2024 customer perception results for our Shared Ownership homes, how well we are handling shared ownership complaints and the amount of anti-social behaviour reported by shared owners.

These measures show us how we can improve and mean that customers, the Regulator of Social Housing, and others can hold us to account.

Other ways to give your feedback


 

There are plenty of other ways you can give your feedback about the service you have received. Your feedback is used to help improve the way we do things for customers. 

About our surveys and research

We carry out surveys every month and the performance figures are based on a sample of responses. We receive replies from over 2,300 customers a year about their overall satisfaction with our services, their home, their neighbourhood and that we listen to their views.  We also ask a sample of customers who have recently experienced a service for their feedback – for example over 2,000 replies from customers about their last repair, over 650 regarding moving in to a home, over 670 responses about our complaints service, and over 4,300 responses about our customer service centre.
