Block Management Mile End

Mile End '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.


Block Management Reviews

"I moved into a Ringley managed property recently and there have been a few small issues, with low heating temperature as the main one. Georgia from Ringley took this issue very seriously and has been so helpful in resolving it in a timely fashion. There was no need to chase her given that she followed up with emails to check for updates. In the end 3 engineers were involved but Georgia made sure the heating was fixed. Given the recent cold weather and my small children this exceptional service was appreciated. Thanks again Georgia!!"

"I had a fantastic experience with Ringley Limited Chartered Surveyors! The agent I worked with, was incredibly helpful and made the whole process of viewing and completing the rental documentation smooth and stress-free. Bob, who handles maintenance in the building, has been great and quick to address any issues. The entire team is professional, responsive, and efficient. I highly recommend their services for anyone looking for a hassle-free rental experience. Thanks, Ringley team!"

"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."

Mile End - Cultural Scene

History of Mile End

Mile End is situated east of the City of London, in the borough of Tower Hamlets. It is 4 miles from the centre of London.
In 1288, Mile End's name was first recorded, as it developed one mile from Aldgate. Hence, this is how the area got its name. 
In 1657, Oliver Cromwell granted permission to establish the first Jewish burial ground. It has been referred to as one of the most hallowed spots for British Jewry. 
During the 18th century, Mile End Road was a curious mixture of merchants' houses and industrial buildings, including a brewery and a distillery. Currently, a blue plaque at 88 Mile End Road shows the site of the house where the explorer, Captain James Cook, once lived, from 1764 until his death in 1779. Cook was killed on his third voyage to the islands of Hawaii. He was attacked by an angry tribe, because he had tried to kidnap their ruling chief.
Until the early 19th century, Mile End Road and surrounding areas remained largely agricultural. Many Victorian terraced houses were built, and the mostly poor Jewish population grew. 
In 1876, Dr. Barnardo converted local warehouses along the Regent's Canal into Copperfield Road Ragged School, to provide poor children with a basic education. It was the largest of its kind at the time. This establishment is now The Ragged Museum. 
In the 1880s, colleges were built along Mile End Road; and in 1915, some of these buildings became part of the University of London. 
During the early 20th century, conditions worsened in the Mile End Road area. After World War II, (1939-1945), bomb sites and slums, including Captain Cook's house, were cleared. The area was rebuilt intensively. 
Until the late 1970s, many blocks of flats were built, as well as less prominent housing association buildings. Along Mile End Road, some gems of Georgian buildings remain. However, these are less in number than the many shops and take-aways.
