We have recently appointed JMP to carry out a stock condition survey of 20% of our properties. The survey data collected will be used to determine the Association’s future investment needs and assess compliance with the Scottish Housing Quality Standard. It will also assist in determining upgrades to your homes.
We anticipate the survey commencing from week commencing 6th July 2026 with the aim of completing the surveys by 14th August 2026. A surveyor may call at your home within these dates to carry out a survey, however, if they find you are not at home they will try and gain access to another property in the area. We must stress that you do not have to wait in for a surveyor to call and you do not have to take time off work.
The survey should last for no more than half an hour and involves a visual survey of windows, doors, kitchens, bathrooms and finishes. The Surveyor will also take photographs as required.
The Surveyors will carry photographic ID along with a letter of authority issued by the Association which will be on our headed paper. You should ask to see these if you have any concerns about anyone you see in your neighbourhood.
If you have any concerns or queries about the stock condition survey, please contact JMP on 0141 333 0363 Monday to Friday 9.00am to 12.30pm and 1.30pm to 5.00pm. Alternatively please call Lochaber Housing Association on 01397 702530 with any questions you may have and speak to a member of the Asset Management Team with any questions you may have.
