Block Management Homerton

Homerton'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 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'.

History of Homerton

Homerton, located in the London Borough of Hackney, has a history stretching back to at least the 11th century, when it was a small hamlet within the ancient parish of Hackney. Its name is thought to derive from “Humberton,” meaning a farmstead near a bend in the river. In medieval times, Homerton was a rural area with farmland, mills, and large manor houses owned by wealthy Londoners seeking a retreat from the city. During the Tudor and Stuart periods, it became known for its grand homes and later as a centre for nonconformist religious education.

By the 18th and 19th centuries, Homerton evolved into an area of growing population and industry, driven by Hackney’s expansion and improved transport links, including railways and bus routes. It was also home to Homerton Hospital and a teacher training college, contributing to its reputation as a centre for public service and education. In the 20th century, Homerton experienced urban decline but has since undergone significant regeneration. Today, it is a vibrant and diverse community, blending historic buildings with new development and playing a key role in the cultural and social life of East London.
