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.

"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."

Cultural scenes in Harold Wood
Harold Wood, located in the London Borough of Havering, has a history rooted in ancient times. The name “Harold Wood” is thought to derive from King Harold Godwinson, the last Anglo-Saxon king of England, with “Wood” referring to the nearby forested area. Originally, Harold Wood was a small rural hamlet surrounded by dense woodland and farmland. For centuries, Harold Wood remained a quiet agricultural community. The arrival of the railway in the 19th century marked a turning point for Harold Wood, improving transport links and helping Harold Wood develop into a growing suburban area within Greater London.
In the 20th century, Harold Wood expanded further as more housing and local facilities were built to accommodate a rising population. Harold Wood became known for its blend of peaceful residential streets and proximity to green spaces like Harold Wood Park. Today, Harold Wood is part of the London Borough of Havering and is valued for its village-like atmosphere combined with easy access to London.
