Why we are engaging with Irvine Housing Association Ltd (Irvine)
We are engaging with Irvine about its service quality.
Registered as Irvine Housing Association Ltd, Irvine is trading as Riverside Scotland. Irvine is part of the Riverside Group.
To assess the risk to social landlord services we have reviewed and compared the 2021/22 service quality performance of all social landlords to identify the weakest performing landlords. We will therefore engage with Irvine about tenant satisfaction.

Irvine must:
- review its performance for tenant satisfaction and consider what improvement action it needs to take.
What we will do
We will:
- review Irvine’s service quality performance as part of our 2023/24 risk assessment; and
