Tenant Satisfaction Survey
A structured questionnaire that gathers residents' feedback about their experience at a rental property.
A tenant satisfaction survey gathers residents' feedback about their experience at a rental property. Responses help a management team identify recurring concerns, areas that are improving or declining, and topics for follow-up action.
Report the survey period, response count, questions, and scoring method so results have context. Use comparable questions when reviewing trends, and distinguish reported perceptions from operating records. Feedback can inform an action plan, but a survey result alone does not demonstrate that a repair was completed or a resident renewed.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does positive survey feedback prove that a resident renewed?
No. A survey records feedback. Actual renewal results require separate lease or renewal records.
