Kent's Property Landscape and What It Means for Block Management
Kent is one of the most diverse counties in England when it comes to residential property. The commuter belt towns of Dartford, Gravesend, and Sevenoaks have seen substantial new-build apartment development driven by fast rail links to London, with many purpose-built blocks requiring specialist kent property management focused on amenity upkeep, responsive maintenance, and resident communication.
Along the coast, Thanet's seaside towns of Margate, Ramsgate, and Broadstairs present unique challenges for block managers. Coastal properties face accelerated weathering from salt air, demanding proactive communal areas maintenance and regular facade inspections. Canterbury's historic conversions, many within conservation areas, require careful management that respects listed building constraints while meeting modern fire safety and Section 20 consultation requirements. The Medway Towns of Chatham, Gillingham, and Rochester offer a mix of regenerated dockyard apartments and Victorian conversions that each demand tailored management approaches.
Our Kent team has direct experience managing all of these property types. We maintain strong working relationships with Kent County Council, Maidstone Borough Council, Canterbury City Council, Medway Council, and district authorities across the county. As your managing agent, we typically achieve contractor response times of 24 to 48 hours for urgent repairs, with planned building maintenance programmes scheduled to minimise disruption to residents. Our knowledge of local planning regulations, conservation area restrictions, and building control requirements means your block is always in compliant, capable hands.
“Since switching to Block, the difference in our Canterbury development has been remarkable. Communication is excellent, the communal areas have never looked better, and our service charge is finally being managed transparently. They genuinely understand the challenges of managing a period conversion in a conservation area.”- Sarah T., RMC Director, Canterbury
