Block Management Canning Town

Canning Town'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

"Amazing property management, specifically Antonia! She is very communicative, friendly, efficient and replies to all queries extremely quickly. The process for renting in anaconda is nothing but easy and seamless. It is a nice change from dealing with other property management companies that lack these qualities"

Millie Ellison-Bradshaw 156 days ago

"Recently moved into the mailbox, Stockport and we’ve been loving it so far. Amazing building, great location and an apartment furnished to a high standard. The advisor helped us settle in pretty well. She and other staff members we’ve met have been really helpful and they responds to our queries in a timely manner."

Mojisola Lawal 114 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."

Local history in Canning Town

History of Canning Town

 

This area was originally called Hallsville and probably got its modern name from George Canning, briefly prime minister in 1827 - or from his son Charles Canning, first viceroy of India from 1858 until his death in 1862. Others have suggested that the name derives from a factory dating from the mid-19th century, possibly a cannery, but historians have failed to identify the relevant facility.

The opening of a railway station (originally called Barking Road) in 1847 spurred the early development of jerry, mostly without adequate drainage, leaving the population vulnerable to epidemics.

The fastest period of growth came after the 1880s, during the heyday of the Royal Docks. The biggest employers in the area were the Thames Iron Works, Victorian shipbuilders for the world and the original home of West Ham football club. Thirty-eight spectators died in the forges when the slipway collapsed during the launch of the warship HMS Albion in 1898.

The last major warship built by the shipyard was HMS Thunderer in 1911. The following year the Thames Ironworks declared bankruptcy and closed.

The Royal Docks brought significant immigration to the area and Canning Town had the largest black population in London in 1920. Comedy writer Johnny Speight was born here that year: he later created the bigoted TV character Alf Garnett . The area was badly damaged during the Blitz, which led to the construction of many high-rise buildings after the war. The partial collapse of the Ronan Point tower in the Customs area has resulted in a temporary withdrawal of high-rise solutions for housing needs across the UK and beyond. Late 20th century redevelopment typically took the form of smaller units in an endless series of cul-de-sacs built by housing associations.
