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.

History of Colliers Wood
Colliers Wood, located in the London Borough of Merton, has a history that reflects its transformation from rural farmland to an urban area. The name "Colliers Wood" is believed to have originated in the medieval period, derived from "colliers," referring to charcoal burners or the people who extracted coal from nearby woodlands. The area was largely agricultural for much of its history, with forests and open fields surrounding the settlement, and its growth was slow until the 19th century.
The major turning point in Colliers Wood’s development came with the expansion of the railway in the mid-19th century. The opening of Colliers Wood railway station in 1871, as part of the expansion of the London to Wimbledon line, provided direct access to Central London and spurred suburban development. By the early 20th century, Colliers Wood had transitioned from a rural village into a densely populated suburb. The construction of large housing estates, along with industrial development in the surrounding areas, led to the urbanization of Colliers Wood. Today, the area is a vibrant and diverse part of South London, retaining elements of its past while continuing to develop as a modern urban community.
