Block Management Pinner

Pinner'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.

"Five Stars"

Joe Walton 98 days ago

"I had the pleasure of dealing with your lettings advisor during my recent rental process, and I couldn't be more grateful for her help. She was incredibly accommodating, always going above and beyond to ensure everything went smoothly. From answering all my questions to arranging viewings at times that suited me, she made the entire experience stress free and easy. Her professionalism, attentiveness, and willingness to assist in every way made her a true standout. She was great!"

"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 Pinner

Pinner, located in the north-western part of London within the borough of Harrow, has a rich history dating back to the 13th century. The name "Pinner" is believed to be derived from the River Pinn that runs through the area, or from a description of a hill-slope shaped like a pin. The settlement was first recorded in 1231 as "Pinnora" during the reign of King Henry III. By the 14th century, Pinner had established itself as a small community with the construction of St. John the Baptist Church, which remains a prominent feature of the town today. In the late 15th century, East End Farm Cottage, the oldest surviving private dwelling, marked the area’s early residential development. Throughout the centuries, Pinner grew as a market town, with a fair established in 1336 and various tradesmen, including butchers, bakers, and tailors, living and working within the village.

The arrival of the railway in the 19th century significantly transformed Pinner, making it more accessible to London. The opening of the Pinner station in 1842 led to the development of affluent residential estates, such as Woodridings, and turned Pinner into a desirable commuter area. By the late 19th and early 20th centuries, Pinner had shifted from an agricultural economy to one focused on domestic service and other industries. Post-World War II, the area underwent rapid suburban development, with new estates, shopping centers, and schools being established. Today, Pinner retains its historical charm, with its High Street and local lanes offering a glimpse into its past, while also being considered one of the most desirable parts of Harrow.
