The city council has advertised the contract for a consultant to survey all 19,601 council-owned domestic properties.

The purpose of the survey is to identify how each property complies with the Scottish Housing Quality Standard.

The findings will also inform the council's approach to programming work that is to get all homes up to the required national standard by 2015.
