We are responsible for inspecting RSL and local authority housing services. You can see reports of completed inspections here.

Organisations to be inspected in the coming year are included in our inspection programme.

We undertake an annual risk assessment of each RSL and we make a decision based on that assessment as to how we will engage, if necessary, with the landlord. We publish the decisions emerging from that process Our Guide to How We Regulate explains our principles and approach.

We publish indicators of RSLs’ performance in relation to housing management services – arrears, repairs and management of empty property. You can see the tables showing these indicators. You can download our annual review and analysis of the main trends.

If you wish to see comparable information about local authorities, please visit the Audit Scotland website. Audit Scotland has a role in determining performance information to be reported by local authorities. The reported indicators related to housing and homelessness are available here.

We publish our policies for regulating the sector under four headings: registration, regulation, inspection and intervention.

We also publish detailed guidance and standards which we expect RSLs to adhere to.

We have MoUs in place with the following organisations:
