Choosing and using a Property Managing Agent

When you acquire the right to manage, you will have the ability to choose whether to manage the block yourselves or to appoint a professional Property Managing Agent of your own choosing.

If you choose to appoint a Property Managing Agent, we recommend that you choose a member of the Association of Residential Managing Agents (ARMA) which is the only body in England and Wales to focus exclusively on matters relating to the management of residential leasehold blocks of flats. Members of ARMA will have had to satisfy an independent body of their competence.

We have contacts with ARMA members who specialise in the management of small and medium as well as large blocks of flats.
