The regulator's grade

C2

C2 means there are some weaknesses. The landlord needs to improve. Grades go from C1 (best) to C4 (worst).

How it compares

We compared East Riding Of Yorkshire Council with 50 similar landlords: councils, 10,000 homes or more. These are tenants' answers to the 2025/26 survey and the landlord's own records.

Overall satisfaction: 81.8% of tenants were happy with the service. That puts it in the top quarter of similar landlords.

Repairs and homes: in the top quarter.

Being heard: in the top quarter.

Neighbourhood: in the top quarter.

Top quarter means it did better than at least three in four similar landlords. Bottom quarter means it did worse than at least three in four.
