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 Cricklewood
Cricklewood, situated in northwest London, has a history that reflects its transformation from rural farmland to a vibrant urban suburb. The area was originally part of the ancient parish of Willesden and remained sparsely populated until the 19th century. Its name comes from a small wood recorded as early as the 13th century. The arrival of the Midland Railway in the 1860s, followed by the opening of Cricklewood station in 1870, played a major role in the area’s development, bringing in commuters and encouraging the construction of housing and businesses.
In the early 20th century, Cricklewood became a hub for industry and innovation. It was home to the Handley Page aircraft factory and the Smiths Industries headquarters, both major employers in the area. The rise of the tram system also helped establish Cricklewood as a key suburban centre. Despite modern redevelopment, Cricklewood retains elements of its historical character through its Edwardian and Victorian architecture and diverse community. It remains a busy and multicultural area with a mix of residential, commercial, and green spaces.
