Quick Answers

Residential block management is the professional management of apartment buildings and residential blocks on behalf of leaseholders, freeholders or resident management companies.

A block management company manages the day-to-day operations of a residential building. This can include organising maintenance and repairs, managing service charge budgets, arranging building insurance, ensuring health and safety compliance and supporting communication between residents and the property management team.

A managing agent acts on behalf of a freeholder, developer or resident management company to manage the building and communal areas. Their responsibilities often include coordinating contractors, overseeing building maintenance, managing service charges and ensuring the property complies with relevant regulations.

Service charges are payments made by leaseholders to cover the costs of maintaining and managing shared areas within a building. These charges may cover services such as cleaning, maintenance, building insurance and repairs to the communal area.

A block management company may be appointed by the freeholder, developer or resident management company (RMC) responsible for the building. Their role is to ensure the property is professionally managed in accordance with the lease and relevant property management legislation.

Professional block management services help ensure residential buildings are maintained to a high standard, comply with health and safety regulations and operate efficiently for residents, leaseholders and property owners. Effective management also ensures compliance with legislation such as the Landlord and Tenants Acts 1985 and 1987, which govern service charges and leaseholder protections.
