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."

Kings Norton Cultural Scene
Kings Norton, a historic area in Birmingham, England, has a rich history that dates back to the Anglo-Saxon period. The name "Kings Norton" is derived from Old English "Nord tun," meaning "north farm" or "north settlement," and it was historically the northernmost manor of Bromsgrove in Worcestershire. First recorded in the Domesday Book of 1086 as "Nortune," Kings Norton remained a royal manor for centuries, with the Crown owning its lands until 1804. Archaeological evidence, such as Roman pottery and ditches near Parsons Hill, suggests the area was inhabited even earlier, during the Romano-British period. The village was also the site of skirmishes during the English Civil War, notably in 1642 when Prince Rupert’s forces were ambushed by Parliamentarians.
In the 19th and 20th centuries, Kings Norton evolved from a rural village into a suburban area as Birmingham expanded. The arrival of the railway and the growth of local industries brought new challenges and opportunities. Despite significant urbanization, the area has retained much of its historic charm, particularly around The Green, where historic buildings like St. Nicolas Church and the Saracen's Head remain. Today, Kings Norton is celebrated for its blend of historical significance and modern living, making it a unique and vibrant part of Birmingham.
