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.

"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."

History of Mile End

Mile End is located east of the City of London in the borough of Tower Hamlets, approximately four miles from the city's center. The name "Mile End" was first recorded in 1288, reflecting its location one mile from Aldgate. Over the centuries, the area developed a rich history. In 1657, Oliver Cromwell granted permission to establish the first Jewish burial ground, which has since become one of the most significant sites for British Jewry. In the 18th century, Mile End Road was a blend of merchants' houses and industrial buildings, including a brewery and a distillery. A blue plaque at 88 Mile End Road marks the house where the famous explorer Captain James Cook lived from 1764 until his death in 1779. Cook was killed during his third voyage to Hawaii, after an encounter with a hostile tribe.

Up until the early 19th century, Mile End and its surroundings were primarily agricultural. However, the area saw significant urban development with the construction of Victorian terraced houses, accommodating a growing and largely impoverished Jewish population. In 1876, Dr. Barnardo established the Copperfield Road Ragged School in local warehouses, providing education to poor children. This institution, now known as The Ragged Museum, was the largest of its kind at the time. During the 1880s, educational institutions were built along Mile End Road, with some becoming part of the University of London in 1915. The area experienced decline in the early 20th century, worsened by the destruction of World War II bombings. However, post-war reconstruction led to significant redevelopment, with numerous blocks of flats and housing association buildings being constructed by the late 1970s. Despite this, remnants of Georgian buildings can still be found among the many shops and takeaways lining Mile End Road today.
