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.

History of Blackheath
Blackheath has a fascinating history dating back to the Middle Ages, and its name is believed to come from the Old English word "blæc," meaning black or dark, referring to the heath’s moorland landscape. Historically, the heath was used for grazing sheep and cattle, but it became more well-known in the 17th century when it was used as a meeting place for political and social gatherings. Blackheath was also a site of historical events, such as the Battle of Blackheath in 1497, where rebels from Cornwall fought against King Henry VII's army. Today, the area still echoes with the stories of its past, with historical markers and memorials scattered across the common.
Aside from its role in various historical events, Blackheath also became a fashionable area in the 19th century, attracting wealthier families looking for a peaceful suburban retreat from central London. Over the years, the area has maintained a balance of green space and urban development, making it a vibrant and diverse place to live and visit. With its combination of historical landmarks and scenic views, Blackheath continues to be a testament to the evolving history of London.
