Tenant Satisfaction Measures

As a registered provider of social housing, Look Ahead is required to report on a set of performance indicators known as Tenant Satisfaction Measures (TSMs). These 22 measures help us, and our residents, understand how well we’re delivering key services.

Safety & Quality

Transparency

Neighbourhood & Community

Tenancy

As a registered provider of social housing, Look Ahead is required to report on a set of performance indicators known as Tenant Satisfaction Measures (TSMs). These 22 measures help us – and our residents – understand how well we’re delivering key services.

The TSMs are split into two types:

  • Tenant perception measures (12 measures), gathered through resident surveys.
  • Landlord management information (10 measures), based on our operational data.

Because of the size of our organisation and the number of homes we manage, we are required to report on TSMs for tenants living in Low Cost Rental Accommodation only.

We carried out our survey from November 2024 to mid February 2025 via the consensus approach and we carried out statistical weighting in order to account for any biases in the sample population.

We publish these results annually as part of our commitment to transparency and service improvement.
