Block Management Colliers Wood

Colliers Wood '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 Colliers Wood

Colliers Wood, located in the London Borough of Merton, has transformed in recent decades from a predominantly industrial area to a thriving, residential neighborhood. The area’s development accelerated in the 20th century with the expansion of the Northern Line, which made Colliers Wood more accessible to central London. Historically, the area was known for its agricultural and industrial activities, with the name "Colliers Wood" believed to derive from the charcoal-burning industry that once flourished here. The post-war period saw the area transition into a popular residential suburb, and with further infrastructure improvements, particularly the opening of new shops and amenities, it began to attract families and young professionals seeking more affordable housing options within easy reach of the capital.

Today, Colliers Wood offers a mix of housing options, including period homes, purpose-built apartments, and modern developments. Its proximity to Wimbledon, excellent transport links, and green spaces like the nearby Wandle Park make it an attractive place to live for those seeking a suburban lifestyle with easy access to the city. The area’s real estate market has been steadily growing, driven by demand for both rental properties and homes for purchase. As the area continues to evolve, property and block management services are becoming essential in maintaining the area's housing stock, supporting its growing community, and ensuring long-term value for investors. With its increasing popularity and ongoing development, Colliers Wood remains a key player in South London’s real estate market.
