Block Management Epsom and Ewell

Epsom and Ewell'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.

History of Epsom and Ewell

Epsom and Ewell, located in Surrey to the south of London, boast a rich history that spans from prehistoric times to the modern day. Epsom's name is thought to originate from Old English, meaning "the homestead of Epse," and the area has been inhabited since ancient times. The town's fame grew in the 17th century with the discovery of natural mineral springs, believed to have medicinal properties. These springs led to the development of Epsom as a popular spa town, attracting visitors from across the country. The town's connection to health and wellness was further solidified with the production of Epsom salts, derived from the spring water, which became a staple in medicine.

Alongside its spa history, Epsom is perhaps best known for the Epsom Derby, one of the most prestigious horse races in the world, first held in 1780 at Epsom Downs. The race continues to be a central event in the town's calendar, drawing large crowds and contributing to its reputation. The nearby town of Ewell, once more rural and agricultural, grew alongside the expansion of the railway in the 19th century. Today, both Epsom and Ewell combine historical charm with modern amenities, offering a pleasant balance of suburban life and access to London's vibrant urban offerings.
