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.

"I’m soon to move in to my 1 bedroom apartment and just wanted to give a shoutout to the team. From a walk-in viewing to securing my 1 bed, she’s been nothing short of amazing. She’s gone above and beyond to help me through every step of the process and has been on hand to help day or night. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience and every step of the journey has been smooth and easy. Thanks again"

"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 Osterley
Osterley’s history dates back to Roman times, with evidence of early settlements in the area. By the medieval period, Osterley was a rural village within the parish of Isleworth. The land that now makes up Osterley was once home to Osterley Manor, a large estate owned by the wealthy Jersey family. The estate has been around since the 16th century and became famous for its beautiful house and expansive grounds.
In the 18th century, the estate was transformed by the Child family, with Sir Francis Child commissioning the creation of Osterley House. The house, which was later remodeled by architect Robert Adam, is an exemplary example of neoclassical architecture. During the Industrial Revolution, Osterley grew into a suburban district, with the development of railway access aiding in the expansion of the area. Today, Osterley is a blend of history and modern development, with notable landmarks like Osterley Park and House continuing to draw attention from visitors and residents alike.
