Can't Afford a Managing Agent

We provide the tools and infrastructure to keep you
safe and abreast of key
processes.

"When a block is small or an estate has few shared services self managing could be an option. It takes a Board or Director who is willing to get involved in the nitty gritty stuff."

BlockCare 300

BlockCare 300 adds value for small blocks of flats or private housing estates. Our role is to manage the accounting and administration. We do need at least 1 Director to logon and set the budget (so we can send the demands out, collect the money and put it in a Client account just your site). Demands will be legally compliant.

We’ll deal with Companies House and prepare the year end service charge accounts (from the demands we’ve issued, the money we’ve collected and the expenses posted on-line). Again this keeps you compliant with Sections 21-28 of the 1987 Landlord & Tenant Act. There are fail safe mechanisms in place, for example if nobody sends us a budget we’ll increase last years by 10% until you do so. Naturally this is only after email reminders chasing you.

BlockCare 300 is NOT a ‘fully managed’ service; you don’t get a Property Manager as the management decisions are undertaken by the Directors who are the Responsible Person. We fulfil the accounting and administrative functions to keep everything working like clockwork and protect you from rookie or schoolboy errors. See below who will be doing what.

Collections

We send out the demands and collect payments which includes any arrears pending. Owners can even pay by direct debit for convenience.

Spending

You will control all spending and instruct on any repairs by uploading invoices to the online portal for us to pay.
We pay the bills and compile the service charge accounts for your record.

Legal

When properties sell we’ll handle the legal paperwork and evenshare certificates. This will be a little extra though. Our legal fees start from £275 plus VAT.

Prices start from

£825 + VAT

for 1 to 4 flats

£1250 + VAT

for 5 to 8 flats
