Block Management Romford

Romford'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

"The lettings negotiator was absolutely amazing. Getting the perfect place can be very difficult and she was patient with us, and provided the necessary guidance. Although we couldn’t secure our preferred property which was not in her control, she was helpful in getting what we now call a home. Thank you."

Hassan Abdullahi 42 days ago

"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 Romford

Romford is a large town in east London, situated 14.1 miles north-east of Charing Cross. It was first recorded in 1177 as Romfort, which is derived from Old English rum and ford. Its original meaning is the wide or spacious ford.
Romford developed in the Middle Ages, and had a strong agricultural base, with a number of mills used to grind corn. Between the 15th and 19th centuries, Romford had a leather industry. Other industries included cloth making, weaving, charcoal burning, metal working and brewing. 
In 1839, the opening of the railway station led to a flourishing local economy. One significant example was the successful Star Brewery. Further local stations were opened, and light industry slowly grew up. In the 1970s, these industries peaked, with factories on the edge of town, including Roneo Vickers office machinery company, Colvern manufacturers of wireless components, May's Sheet Metal Works, and brush manufacturers, Betterware.
