Advance warning to Leaseholders

Tue, 09 Sep 2008 00:00:00 GMT

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

Mon, 01 Sep 2008 00:00:00 GMT

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.
