Gareth Samples, CEO of TPFG said “In the same way most estate agents have over the years added Lettings and Financial Services to their service offering, we believe that with the right partner Block Management is the next discipline that will be added. BM is a fragmented market best served by local operators.”

David Brown, property services veteran and MD of Add Melon said “I’ve been consulting for HML/B-hive for 18 months now, helping them get this proposition right. It’s now got proof of concept, is a fixed £ fee model and allows the Partner to trade using their own brand. B-hive provide training, software, service charge accounting, marketing support, compliance and help winning new business. In the new year we will be focusing the proposition on experienced block managers that want to set up their own businesses and need a capable and credible Partner behind them, allowing them to concentrate on working with clients and managing the client relationships.”

More and more estate and lettings agents are moving into the Block Management space and as a result of this B-hive have also provided due diligence services to a growing number of agents who have been eyeing up acquisitions in this space.
