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 the lettings team any issues fixed quite quickly and quick responses to emails/messages"

"I write with regards to the recent help I received from our Estate Manager, I asked him to come to my apartment and view the very badly stained glass and metal on my balcony . I have tried to clean with no success . A window cleaner couldn't do any better . The new cladding stained by plaster looks dreadful also . On the side balcony there is a pool of green stagnant water . Together with a collection of the builders sandwich wrappers and bottles . A pain of the balcony glass has been shattered and removed but not replaced . It all got a bit too much . The big feature of the apartment is its balcony and they look dreadful . Even the new cladding is covered in stains from where plaster has been wiped . None of the above was covered during the work . The Estate Manager has assured me that both balconies will be cleaned stones pressure washed , glass replaced and cleaned to its perfect pre build status and the metal to returned to its pre build state . I have been very distressing time these last few years . Aware the builders are leaving I don't want to be left with this mess . The Estate Manager has reassured me all this will be put right and he personally will make sure of this . It has made me feel better. There is someone coming to show me how good this will be in a week or two when the builders leave . Trusting it will all be restored back to it former perfect condition "

"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 Tottenham Hale

Tottenham Hale is situated in north London, in the borough of Haringey. It is 8.5 miles from the centre of London. There is evidence of pre-Norman economic activity beside the  River Lea. "The Hale" means "the nook;" and this was recorded around the late 13th century. However, the first mention of Tottenham Hale, did not come until 1754, during the Georgian period. At this time, Tottenham Hale was the largest district of the area, with many dwellings; and the Ferry Boat Inn was situated at its eastern side. After the construction of the Lee Navigation, a lock was built at Tottenham Hale in 1776.
In 1840, during the Victorian era, Tottenham station opened on the Northern and Eastern Railway. In 1968, the station was named Tottenham Hale. It is currently on the Victoria Line of the Underground, and also on National Rail. When the station was first opened, Tottenham Hale was a village, with over 600 inhabitants. The Ferry Boat Inn was enlarged, and opened a pleasure garden and fishery. It was a popular place to visit. In 1845, Tottenham Lock was resited to its present location. From the 1860s onwards, suburban development followed in the area. At the same time, the East London Waterworks Company's reservoirs submerged the meadows. As a major feat of Victorian and Edwardian engineering, from 1863 to 1904, ten reservoirs were created. These have provided millions of Londoners with their drinking water ever since.
During the early to mid 20th century, factories were built in the area, and much of Tottenham Hale was primarily industrial. One example was the Gestetner Factory on Broad Lane: this employed 6,000 staff, and specialised in stencil duplicating equipment. 
From the late 1950s onwards, much of Tottenham Hale was redeveloped, with residential housing. In the late 1970s, the Ferry Lane estate, and a new primary school was opened. Disused factories were replaced by warehousing; and Ferry Island and Tottenham Hale retail parks were opened.
New building developments have taken place, and one of the most notable of these is Hale Village. This has over 1,100 residential properties, and 1,200 rooms for students. There are further new amenities and businesses, employing 400 people. The next major scheme will be Hale Wharf, where around 500 new homes will be built next to the waterside. 
In 2020, Tottenham Hale's population was 19,147. This shows the area has come a long way since Victorian times. It is a thriving district of London; ideal for renters and first-time buyers, wanting to get on the property ladder.
