Block Management Bounds Green

Bounds 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.


Block Management Reviews

"The lettings advisor was amazing from start to finish! It is my first time buying a rental property and she went above and beyond to make the process as easy as possible. She responded to my emails very promptly and kept me updated in the process. I would highly recommend dealing with her as she gets the job done! Can’t thank her enough"

"The relationship manager for my block at GMV, provided invaluable assistance in clarifying the recent service charge bills and correspondence. The documents were presented in a format that was difficult to comprehend, leaving ambiguity regarding the demands and deductions made by DD. Susi went above and beyond to understand the issue, ensuring that the information she conveyed was both accurate and clear. Her professionalism and exceptional interpersonal skills were evident throughout our interactions, and I highly commend her for her outstanding service."

"We have had a problem with noise from the flat above us in Lady Isle House Ferry Court Cardiff. We contacted a Mr Paul Staniforth who immediately became involved and addressed the situation. We really do appreciate what he has done for us and cannot thank him enough. Once again a big thank you to Mr Staniforth. The noise above was intolerable."

History of Bounds Green

Bounds Green, located in the London Borough of Haringey, has a fascinating history that reflects the transformation of a rural village into a suburban community. Originally an agricultural area, the name "Bounds Green" is believed to derive from "Bounces Green," which may refer to a type of shrub or a landowner's surname. In the 19th century, the arrival of the Great Northern Railway in 1850 began the area's transformation, offering better access to central London. This development was further boosted in 1880 with the opening of Bounds Green Railway Station, paving the way for population growth as people moved to the area for its convenience and rural charm.

The early 20th century saw a housing boom, with the construction of Victorian and Edwardian homes to accommodate the growing middle class. The opening of Bounds Green Tube Station in 1932, as part of the Piccadilly Line, further improved connectivity and helped solidify the area's suburban character. During World War II, Bounds Green was affected by the Blitz, with the tube station serving as an air raid shelter for residents. After the war, the area underwent reconstruction and continued to develop into a multicultural suburb, reflecting the wider demographic changes in London. Today, Bounds Green is a thriving residential area with a strong sense of community, offering green spaces, diverse architecture, and convenient transport links.
