Property management company, The FirstPort Group, has launched a new London Residential Real Estate Team aimed at supporting resident-managed developments across the capital.
This new London powerhouse is comprised of a senior management team with nearly 60 years’ combined experience working with Resident Management Company (RMC) and Right to Manage (RTM) Directors.
Victoria Peake, who will be heading up the team, commented:
The distinctive needs of resident-managed developments are clear. The FirstPort Group offers a unique blend of national expertise coupled with a clear understanding of the specific intricacies of the London market. Our approach is designed to deliver tailored, high-quality property management solutions that meet both the general and unique challenges of London’s developments. This includes the personalised service expected by the RMC and RTM Directors we collaborate with.
Leanne Barker and Craig Covell will join Victoria as part of the management team. They will oversee a highly qualified group of London-based property managers, service charge accountants, and property services specialists.
Additional support services provided by the division include building safety services, surveying and technical expertise, and company secretarial support.
