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 Reviews
"The company clearly has undergone some changes in recent months, I have gained some great support from a member of the office to team to help resolve a few areas of frustration. Whilst some issues are difficult to resolve in short times I have definitely had an empathetic and reactive response from the team. I have been at a Ringley property for nearly a year and I value the reactiveness and patience of this team member."

Surrey is a historic county located in the southeast of England, bordered by Greater London, Kent, Sussex, Hampshire, and Berkshire. Its rich history dates back to prehistoric times, with evidence of early human settlement found in numerous archaeological sites. During the Roman period, Surrey was an important area due to its proximity to Londinium (London), with the Romans constructing roads and settlements in the region. The area was also home to several villas, many of which have been uncovered over the years.In the medieval period, Surrey became part of the Kingdom of England and played a significant role in royal and military history. The county was strategically important, with key castles such as Guildford Castle serving as military strongholds. The county also saw the establishment of several notable abbeys, including Waverley Abbey, one of the first Cistercian monasteries in England. By the 12th century, Surrey was well established as a rural and agricultural region with growing towns.
Surrey’s landscape, with its forests, heathlands, and rolling hills, has always been a key aspect of its identity. During the Tudor period, the area became known for its hunting grounds, with the royal family often visiting. The county continued to flourish through the centuries, particularly in the 18th and 19th centuries when the rise of the railway network made it more accessible to Londoners seeking rural retreats. Towns such as Guildford and Farnham developed into important market towns, and Surrey’s economy diversified with industries such as brickmaking, paper production, and agriculture.In the 20th century, Surrey continued to evolve, with its proximity to London making it an attractive place for commuters. The county is known for its high standard of living, excellent schools, and picturesque villages, making it one of the most sought-after residential areas in the UK. Today, Surrey combines a rich historical heritage with a modern lifestyle, offering both urban and rural living, as well as a range of cultural and recreational activities for residents and visitors alike.
