The regulator's grade

C2

The Regulator of Social Housing checks how well landlords treat tenants. It gave Mid Suffolk District Council grade C2 on 14 October 2026.

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

How it compares

We compared Mid Suffolk District Council with 108 similar landlords: councils, 1,000 to 9,999 homes. These are tenants' answers to the 2025/26 survey and the landlord's own records.

Overall satisfaction: 70.8% of tenants were happy with the service. That puts it in the lower middle of similar landlords.

Repairs and homes: in the lower middle. ↑ Up from bottom quarter in 2024/25.

Being heard: in the lower middle.

Neighbourhood: in the upper middle.

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.

Safety checks

All done. Every home that needed a gas, fire, asbestos, water or lift safety check had one (as at 31 March 2026).
