Tenant Led Inspections are a form of tenant participation that gets tenants fully involved in scrutinising one aspect of a landlord’s service. Tenants inspect the service, test it out and make recommendations on how the service can be improved. Tenant Led Inspections have been very successful here in Edinburgh and we would like to encourage many more tenants to get involved with us in this work.

To get involved, just contact the Federation office.

Our Inspectors have recently completed their inspection of the way the Council communicates with tenants about rent collection.   This was an enjoyable piece of work for the Inspectors, in particular getting the opportunity to meet and interview housing staff and speak to tenants as part of a Focus Group.

In 2016, the Inspectors carried out an inspection of the City of Edinburgh Council’s approach to insulating external walls.  The Inspectors made recommendations on how the service could be improved and the Council produced an action plan to put these recommendations into place.
