Block Management Bethnal Green

Bethnal Green 's No 1 Managing agent

Block and Estate Management is about the minutia done well: the role of a Managing Agent is technical, administrative, practical and political. It takes joined up thinking to do what we do well as well as sufficient resource to react to whatever is necessary day-to-day.

As a Managing Agent we know our true business is building relationships with people. Our people are empowered and know that they can make a difference to how people feel about where they live. We call our 'Property Manager's 'Relationship Managers’ to embody our values which are to build relationships, add value, and to take the initiative. We lead the market in transparency and focusing on risk, cash, repairs and place making, usually in that order, and was the first Managing Agent to introduce a ' money back guarantee ’.

Being who we are would be impossible without our passionately committed people, whose qualifications we sponsor and who we support professionally to be the best they can be, as achieving a national training award and our Silver IIP status confirms.

Block Management Overview

Block and Estate Management is about the minutia done well: the role of a Managing Agent is technical, administrative, practical and political. It takes joined up thinking from a multi-disciplined team with one eye on the strategic long term plan and with sufficient resource to react to whatever is necessary day-to-day: the skills that block and estate management spans are: politics, building pathology, finance, legal knowhow and of course customer service too.

As a leading Managing Agent, we are a one-stop-property shop. We understand that our role is sometimes signposting Clients to get expert advice and supporting them to interpret such advice and make decisions. We support and help owners reach out to government and other local services where matters are beyond our day-to-day block management remit.

As a Managing Agent we know our true business is building relationships with people. Our people are empowered and know that they can make a difference to how people feel about where they live. We call our 'Property Manager's 'Relationship Managers' as our focus which is written up in our values is (a) to build relationships, (b) add value, and (c) to take the initiative: to us this means managing relationships. We lead the market in transparency and focusing on risk, cash, repairs and place making, usually in that order, and was the first Managing Agent to introduce a 'money back guarantee'.

We are not shy of hard work and believe our ability to get stuck in and find solutions that sets us apart. We are innovative to the core and committed to implementing good ideas in pursuit of 5* service.

Being who we are would be impossible without our passionately committed people, whose qualifications we sponsor and who we support professionally to be the best they can be, as achieving a national training award and our Silver IIP status confirms.

Bethnal Green - Cultural Scene

History of Bethnal Green

Bethnal Green, located in the East End of London, has a history that stretches back to Anglo-Saxon times, with its name likely deriving from the Old English words "Bethan health," meaning "at the greenhouse." Initially a rural area, Bethnal Green was a country hamlet known for its agricultural appeal, attracting city dwellers seeking fresh air. During the Tudor period, the area began to urbanize with small-scale industries such as weaving and pottery, and population densities grew as cottages, farms, and inns were established.

The Industrial Revolution marked a significant turning point for Bethnal Green, with rapid urbanization transforming it into a hub of factories and workshops, particularly along Regent’s Canal and the newly built railway lines. The construction of Victorian terraced houses accommodated the growing population of laborers, leading to overcrowded and often grim living conditions. By the late 19th and early 20th centuries, Bethnal Green developed its social identity with schools, churches, and community centers, while the famous Columbia Road Flower Market gained its reputation. During World War II, Bethnal Green suffered devastating losses, including the tragic stampede at the tube station during an air raid, which claimed 173 lives. In the post-war years, the area saw regeneration with new housing and commercial developments, alongside waves of immigration, particularly from South Asia and the Caribbean. Today, Bethnal Green is a vibrant, gentrified neighborhood, home to a cosmopolitan mix of residents and a rich cultural scene, boasting cool cafés, markets, and a proud community spirit.
