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 Reviews
"I’ve been really impressed with my experience working with our Relationship Manager. She was super helpful to solve an issue in my flat recently, sending someone out quickly ahead of a long bank holiday weekend. Thank you!"
| Fleur Segrave 93 days ago |
"The company clearly has undergone some changes in recent months, I have gained some great support from a member of the office to team to help resolve a few areas of frustration. Whilst some issues are difficult to resolve in short times I have definitely had an empathetic and reactive response from the team. I have been at a Ringley property for nearly a year and I value the reactiveness and patience of this team member."
| Luke Keenan 172 days ago |
"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 Brent Cross
Brent Cross, located in the London Borough of Barnet, has developed into a major commercial and retail hub in northwest London. Originally, the area was farmland and open countryside, with the name Brent Cross referring to a historic crossroads near the River Brent. The transformation of Brent Cross began in the mid-20th century, with the construction of the Brent Cross Shopping Centre in 1976 — one of the first large-scale covered shopping malls in the UK. This development marked a significant shift for Brent Cross, turning it into a key destination for retail and business.
Since the opening of the shopping centre, Brent Cross has continued to evolve with plans for major regeneration and expansion, including new homes, offices, and improved transport infrastructure. Today, Brent Cross remains a vital commercial area offering a blend of shopping, dining, and business facilities, while still retaining elements of its historical roots as part of London’s growing suburban landscape.
