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.

"Having over the years dealt with some very poor property managers I am delighted to say that this does NOT apply to Ringley and in particular to our appointed Relationship Manager. He has always responded to our requests very professionally and promptly and has been a delight to deal with."

"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."

Kennington Cultural Scene
Kennington, a historic district in South London, boasts a rich history that stretches back to ancient times. The name "Kennington" likely originates from Old English, meaning "farmstead associated with a man named Cēna" or "place of the King." It was mentioned in the Domesday Book of 1086, underscoring its significance in the medieval period. The area became a royal manor in the 14th century when Edward III granted it to his son, Edward the Black Prince, who built a grand palace near Kennington Cross. This royal connection, along with its fertile land and proximity to the River Thames, made it an ideal location for settlement. In the 19th century, Kennington underwent rapid urbanization, transforming from a rural village to a suburban area.
During the Georgian era, the construction of Georgian terraces and squares, such as Cleaver Square, gave the area architectural charm, while Kennington Common became a site for public gatherings, including the famous Chartist meeting in 1848. The establishment of Kennington Park in 1852 added to the area’s green spaces. By the Victorian period, Kennington was an industrial and commuter hub, with landmarks like The Oval cricket ground gaining prominence. Today, Kennington blends its rich historical heritage with vibrant cultural venues and a strong sense of community, making it a unique and desirable part of London.
