Block Management Finsbury Park

Finsbury Park'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.

History of Finsbury Park

Finsbury Park, located in North London, has a rich and dynamic history rooted in urban growth and public need. It was established in 1869 as one of London’s earliest official public parks, created to provide green space for the rapidly growing population of the capital. Though the park takes its name from the Finsbury area, it is actually situated several miles away, bordering the boroughs of Haringey, Islington, and Hackney. In its early years, Finsbury Park featured ornamental gardens, boating lakes, and open lawns, becoming a popular destination for Victorian leisure and public gatherings. Finsbury park quickly grew in importance as a much-needed green escape.

In the 20th century, Finsbury Park became known not only as a recreational space but also as a cultural and political landmark. During both world wars, Finsbury Park played a role in supporting the local community, and later hosted numerous rallies, festivals, and performances. In more recent decades, Finsbury Park has welcomed internationally renowned artists at major music events and remains a key venue for outdoor entertainment. Despite changes over time, Finsbury Park has retained its essential character as a space for people from all walks of life.
