The assessment of building performance is a methodology that aims to measure the performance of the property through the analysis of different criteria and sub-criteria, according to the typology and function of the building. Although there are international recommendations to guide these assessments in the context of residential buildings, several studies described in the literature do not include all the recommended criteria and sub-criteria. To overcome this limitation, the Qualilar matrix was developed, consisting of 7 dimensions, 27 criteria and 78 sub-criteria. This matrix provides a comprehensive assessment that allows investigating aspects related to sustainability, resilience, safety, infrastructure, costs, habitability, among others, as recommended by the United Nations. The objective of this research was to describe the validation process of the matrix carried out with specialists through the Delphi technique. The study sought to investigate how essential the criteria and sub-criteria presented in the matrix are to compose an evaluation of performance, according to the perception of Brazilian specialists. The research design involved the participation of 4 doctors with extensive experience in the research topic. The results showed that the Qualilar matrix contemplates the essential criteria and sub-criteria to evaluate housing performance. The results bring a new perspective to research on housing performance evaluation, as they will allow to know in a broad way the conditions of housing evaluations, promoting information that subsidize improvements for buildings and their surroundings, contributing to the promotion of regional and urban development.
