Block Management in Poole

What is Block Management?

Block management in Poole refers to the professional administration and maintenance of blocks of flats, residential estates, or mixed-use developments. It ensures buildings are well maintained, legally compliant, and financially managed in the best interests of leaseholders and property owners. A block management company or managing agent takes on these responsibilities to keep properties safe, efficient, and transparent.

A managing agent in Poole handles the essential day-to-day and long-term tasks involved in running residential blocks. This includes financial management, leaseholder and legal compliance, and responding to resident or solicitor enquiries. They also oversee subletting, alterations, and disputes in line with landlord and tenant law.

Customer Testimonials

I have been renting properties for many years and have suffered my fair share of dubious Letting Agents. Then along came Nicola and everything changed for the better. I was amazed and the absolute professional way she conducted herself, going that extra mile to ensure both me and the landlord are treated fairly and within the law. Finally, a Letting Agent I could trust, and I have stayed with her ever since (currently 8 years). I would recommend her and her company for the services you need and deserve any day.

David Brickell – Bournemouth

We are a family of four and have rented two homes though Mallorie Estates over a 7 year period. We found Nicola of Mallorie Estates an outstanding representative and she looked after us really well. Nicola offered prompt and efficient responses every time we needed her help. The level of service and attention is second to none, I would highly recommend Mallorie Estates and their services. The Maintenance guys were equally helpful and friendly, especially Spencer.

Mark and Cecilia Skilton

We have been renting property with Mallorie Estates for the last 7 years until we were finally in a position to buy our first home. We would like to express our gratitude for the exceptional customer service we have received from Nicola and her team. From the very first interaction with Mallorie Estates we were impressed by their professionalism and friendliness. They really make you feel valued as a tenant . We have experienced it especially during the uncertainty of the pandemic where Nicola was very reassuring and ready to negotiate with the Landlord on our behalf. Their dedication to customer service sets them apart and we are grateful to have had the opportunity to work with such a professional and caring team. Thank you for making our rental experience a positive one.

Sylwia and Roberto

Nicola has been managing our rental property for over 10 years now whilst we have been living abroad. We are always kept informed of any issues encountered by the tenants and we can rely on her to bring solutions to any problems and then swiftly get things sorted on our behalf which is exactly what we need. Regular property inspections are always carried out on-time and are accompanied by a thorough report with photos. In conclusion we cannot fault the service we have received from Nicola and her company and would unreservedly recommend them to look after any rented property.’
