We are reducing the number of blocks/developments under management. We are not therefore taking on any further work in this sector.
Property Management
Managing a building is now more demanding and time consuming than ever before. In addition to the normal tasks of maintenance and running the service charge accounts landlords/freeholders today are responsible for complying with a myriad of statutory and health and safety regulations. Often in self managed blocks the burden and responsibility falls on just one or two residents who receive little appreciation for their efforts. Effective management of a block of flats or housing development takes time, organisational care and knowledge of the impact of legislation and other statutory requirements.
For a competitive fee Sullivan Mitchell Management will protect your investment by ensuring the building is properly maintained, insured and complies with administrative, financial and legal obligations.
