    Block and estate management fees can vary significantly between managing agents, and understanding what you should expect to pay, and what services should be included, is essential for any leaseholder or RTM company in Romford.

    At East Valley Properties, we believe in transparent pricing. Our block and estate management fees typically cover day-to-day building management, liaison with leaseholders and directors, service charge budgeting and administration, coordination of repairs and maintenance, contractor management, health & safety compliance, insurance liaison, and clear reporting.

    When comparing block and estate management quotes, it's important to look beyond the headline percentage or fixed fee. Some agents charge lower management fees but add extra charges for services that should be standard, such as attending AGMs, issuing Section 20 notices, or handling insurance claims.

    A good managing agent should provide clear, itemised quotes that show exactly what's included. They should also be upfront about any additional charges that might apply in specific circumstances.

    If you're an RTM company or freeholder in Romford looking for transparent block and estate management, we'd be happy to discuss your building's needs and provide a clear, no-obligation quote.
