Block Management New Eltham

New Eltham'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

"Great experience with Ringley limited. I love their timeliness and prompt response"

Ige Olaoluwa Richard 35 days ago

"Moving into Anaconda Cut has been a fantastic experience! A huge shoutout to our letting agent, who went above and beyond to make the process seamless. From the very first inquiry, she was responsive, patient, and genuinely cared about ensuring we found the perfect apartment. She explained everything clearly, kept us updated every step of the way, and even made time to address all our questions (no matter how small!). It’s rare to meet someone so professional yet approachable—she made what could have been a stressful process completely stress-free. The building itself is incredible, with top-notch amenities that truly elevate the living experience. Simon at reception deserves special thanks for being so helpful during our move-in—his friendly and accommodating nature made settling in so much easier. On top of that, the community here is fantastic! The residents are welcoming and kind, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. If you’re looking for a new home, I couldn’t recommend Anaconda Cut enough. The entire team here make it an experience to remember!"

"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."

The cultural scene of New Eltham

History of New Eltham

New Eltham, located in South East London, evolved from a rural hamlet into a thriving suburb in the late 19th century. The pivotal moment in its transformation came with the opening of Pope Street Station in 1878, later renamed New Eltham in 1886. This railway connection spurred residential development as farmland was converted into housing. By the early 20th century, the area had a modest population, with essential services like shops and schools emerging to meet the needs of its growing community. The Beehive public house, rebuilt in 1897, became a local landmark during this period. 

The 1930s marked a significant phase in New Eltham's expansion, with comprehensive street planning and the construction of numerous homes, predominantly in the 1930s architectural style. In 1931, the community gained a public library, further enhancing local amenities. The area's infrastructure continued to develop, including the widening of the Avery Hill Road bridge in 1974 to accommodate bus traffic. During the Cold War, a windowless blockhouse was constructed behind the library in 1954, serving as a civil defence control centre. Today, New Eltham retains its suburban charm, offering a blend of historical character and modern living.
