Block Management Burnham

Burnham'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.

"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 Burnham

Burnham, located in Buckinghamshire, England, boasts a long and fascinating history that dates back to ancient times. The name "Burnham" comes from Old English, meaning "homestead on a stream." It was first recorded in the Domesday Book of 1086 as "Burneham," with the manor being held by Walter FitzOther. In the medieval period, Burnham grew in significance due to its position on the Great West Road, a major route from London to Bath. In 1271, the village was granted a Royal Charter to hold a market and an annual fair. However, the construction of Maidenhead Bridge around 1280 redirected traffic, causing Burnham’s market prominence to decline.

The town is rich in historical landmarks, including St. Peter's Church, which dates back to the 12th century, and Burnham Abbey, founded in 1265 by Richard, Earl of Cornwall. The abbey was dissolved during the reign of Henry VIII but was later repurposed as a home for Augustinian nuns. Today, Burnham retains much of its historical charm, with notable conservation areas and attractions such as Burnham Beeches, an ancient woodland that remains a beautiful and tranquil part of the town. The area's blend of history and natural beauty continues to attract visitors and residents alike.
