Block Management UK Ltd Bringing back value in to leasehold property

One of main criteria at Block Management Uk Ltd  is to reduce service charge costs wherever practicable whilst continuing  to ensure a good service is in place at all times.

Block Management UK Ltd has been carrying out trials within our current managed block?s of flats in the area of Ipswich Suffolk. IP1
Typically, Block Management companies such as us will make use of 3rd party subcontractors to carry out all of the maintenance requirements within the common parts of blocks of flats or estates. This practise should provide best value. Over the past few years we have noticed in some cases that the cost of using 3rd party company?s has increased dramatically , more often than not this is not the fault of the supplier but  a situation of circumstance when trying to run a profitable company within the UK.
To counter act the problem and bring back value to leaseholders and residents, we have begun a trial by placing a caretaker / handy man in charge of several developments within the town centre of Ipswich.   The Benefits are already noticeable and are as follows.

? Daily on site presence
? Able to report maintenance problems immediately to us
? Able to deal with small repairs whilst already on site saving the cost of calling out a contractor
? Visual contact with residents and leaseholders
? Additional security and peace of mind for the leaseholders and residents
? Cleaner common parts
?  Excellent litter/rubbish control
? In the majority of  cases this is more cost effective

Above are just a few of the improvements we have noticed over the past few weeks, Block Management UK Ltd will be monitoring the trial over the next 12 weeks, during this time we will be gathering feedback from the leaseholders and residents as well as carrying out our scheduled site inspections.  Our expectations are high and we hope to be able to roll out this idea across the majority of our blocks of flats and estates. Even the smaller blocks of flats will benefit as the costs will be shared between all developments in accordance with the actual hours required for each. 

If the above is of interest to you please do contact us by using the links in the contact page.

Latitude 52  Plymouth

Block Management Uk , Specialists in Block Management  are  pleased to confirm our latest appointment and  Grand addition to our portfolio.

Latitude 52  Plymouth
The property is the conversion and vertical extension of former Agnes Weston's Sailors Rest Home, forming residential units to the upper levels comprising 101 apartments on six floors and commercial facilities at street level.
 Many apartments offer panoramic views and the development creates a stunning inner courtyard. As you will  see we have changed the 'language' of the building entirely, added two new storeys in steel and glass  together with now roofscape and a glazed internal atrium.

As a result of the above addition, we will shortly be opening our new estates office and property management department within the Plymouth area, this will bring a new edge to the town, and give developers and residents more of a choice for their Block Management  and general property requirements.

Advanced warning to leaseholders

During the recent and fourth coming credit crisis, our observations within the Block management and property management sector   are as follows, it's almost like the 90's again  suddenly estate agents are advertising that they manage blocks & letting agents too, remember all those brick layers that started to do electrical work and everyone suddenly developing Locksmithing skills after that boring TV show.  I don't think so not again,  all that really happened was everyone ended up doing everything  badly, and not only did the company's end up going broke, they cost their clients thousands.

Beware of imposters Block Management UK LTD dose exactly as it says on tin.

Block Mangement Credit Controlling Service Charges

Block Management  UK Specialists in Blockmanagement  are pleased to announce the launch of our on line credit control system,  with the help and input of Neil Shearing  of SLC Solicitors
Wyle Cop Chambers 77 Wyle Cop Shrewsbury SY1 1UT

www.servicechargearrears.com we have been able to develop a fully automated process that requires very limited user intervention,  Naturally as with all high tech service charge arrears systems, we have the ability to stop the arrears process at any time to prevent unwanted letters being sent. 

The PAMS  system  ( Property Asset Management System) monitors the due date of each service charge demand, then after the preset grace period the stage one letter is sent politely reminding the leaseholder that there payment is overdue,  all clients of Blockmanagment Uk, have the option to choose there preferred method of correspondence,  Email Fax or Post, letters are automatically generated and sent via the preferred method, thus ensuring the leaseholder receives our communication. 

After the seven day period expires, PAMS then checks the status of each service charge demand, and all outstanding will receive a final notice before action letter.

We respect and appreciate that our approach is quick of the mark however, its vital ensure each managed block has sufficient cash flow to discharge its liability's especially in the current credit crunch that were all facing.

A further seven days goes by then the inevitable happens, regrettably the file is passed directly to solicitor for immediate collection.

As each of our managed Blocks & Estates has different service charge dates, terms and conditions, the PAMS  system is programmed to allow for such diverse criteria,  it even distinguishes between a non paying leaseholder and a leaseholder whom is paying via equal installments. 

We look forward to enhance the financial positions of our clients, and making a stand against persistent none payers of service charges.

Many thanks go out to Slc Solicitors, The Block management team whom developed  the concept and especially to the IT department for bring the idea to life.

Block Management Uk specialists in residential and commercial property management are pleased to report record growth during the month of March.

Our sales consultants received 14 applications for the right to manage process, this is a definite indication that there are many dissatisfied leases
out there, our statistics show a failing in the new build market.

The most common area of dissatisfaction arises from developers whom continue to use,incompetent agents on every new development they build.

Aside from this area we are please to confirm 12 new appointments during the month of march, most of our new clients this month arise from the small Block sector, Many agents do not want to manage small blocks of flats, mainly due to the small fees that they attract, however
