Day to Day Management

We undertake the regular, time consuming and mundane administrative tasks that are ultimately crucial to the successful running of the block.

This will include accurate recording of events and expenditure, safe storage of these records and their cost-effective retrieval in the process of raising annual service charges and annual accounts.

This attention to detail ensures compliance with statutory and regulatory requirements. It also means that transparency of costs becomes routine.

 Professional and Experienced

As professional managing agents we can help the directors of the RMC distinguish between the duties of the company under the Companies Acts and the needs and duties of the company, in its role as landlord, under the leases and the relevant landlord and tenant legislation.

In this context our fidelity insurance cover is of significant benefit, over self-regulation by individual members, in protecting leaseholder funds.

Our professional indemnity cover also gives further protection against negligent acts or incompetence.

 Timely and Cost Effective Service

 Our clients have access to us 365 days a year and we work hard to live up to our own exacting standards.

We always respond swiftly. The first step is to agree and put in hand a course of action that meets both the client’s expectations and our high own standards, within a mutually agreed and satisfactory timescale. Our involvement is costed and agreed in advance, whether it be on a fixed fee basis or calculated as per the terms of the leases involved.

Well Organised and Disciplined

When it comes to drawing up and issuing service charges, calculating reserve funds and their timely collection, Blokman’s highly organised approach to record keeping really comes into its own.

To get the work done we liaise with the RMC to devise a Block strategy and within that, to plan and create timetables for redecoration and repairs, undertake the supervision of incidental and planned works and carry out regular inspections. These are planned to include face to face contact with leaseholders and ensure comprehensive and regular reporting.

Independent and Unbiased Advice

We can be relied upon to provide independent and unbiased advice, which includes the assessment of what works may need to be undertaken, independent of leaseholders’ private interests and preferences, based entirely on our duty of care to keep the premises in good repair. We can thus deal impartially with any issues or disputes, limiting any animosity or division that might arise where personal issues become the business of colleagues or friends.

This independence also allows us to relieve Directors of the RMC of the personal responsibility of collecting funds and unpaid charges from leaseholders.
