Testimonials

Julie Waters

We have used Scanlans services since 2007 and can highly recommend them. I am one of the directors at Manor Court in Sharston and Anna Knowles our property manager is fantastic. She is always responsive and any issues are dealt with quickly and professionally. I can honestly say that you couldn’t get a better property management company!

Hannah Wilby

Whilst going through the sale of our property, it has been quite testing to obtain all information the buyers solicitors requested and yet, Anna Knowles at Scanlans has been absolutely brilliant in helping us, nothing is too much trouble for her and she went out of her way to answer a number of complicated queries that were raised. We would just like to say thankyou so much to Anna Knowles for all her hard work and thankyou to Scanlans, it’s been a pleasure.

WHAT IS BLOCK MANAGEMENT?

Block management goes by many different names in the industry; leasehold management, property management, service charge management, and estate management are just a few. It’s the process of managing the communal areas in residential properties through a service charge. Management companies will provide a range of services to keep the property looking good whilst ensuring the health & safety of the occupiers and visitors.

Block management requires constant communication. Managing agents deal with numerous contractors, from repairs, heating, lifts, lighting, and gardening. Block management involves the consistent coordination of these areas to ensure your block keeps running smoothly.

Proud RICS & ARMA Members

ARMA-Q has a set of professional standards that we meet, so you can rest assured knowing consumer protection and best practice in all areas of residential property management is at our core.
