Johnson Burke & Co Ltd

We didn't start as a corporate agency. We started as leaseholders and landlords who were fed up with poor service. For over 20 years, our founders managed their own buildings because the "professionals" simply weren't up to the task. Today, we bring that same owner-operator mindset to every block we manage.

Our Philosophy: We believe in common sense, good communication, and managing your money as if it were our own.

Why We Only Do Block Management

Unlike many firms, we are not estate agents. We don't do sales and we don't do lettings. This means our focus is never split; we are 100% dedicated to the maintenance, financial health, and safety of your building. We specialise in supporting freeholders, Right to Manage (RTM) companies, and resident management associations who need a partner that actually understands the complexities of Victorian mansion blocks and modern luxury estates.

Rescuing Neglected Buildings

We have a proven track record of turning around buildings that have been failed by previous agents. Whether it's a Victorian terrace conversion or a large-scale development, we step in to resolve crises.

• The £750k Restoration: We took over a 70-flat Victorian Mansion Block where accounts hadn't been filed for three years. Within a year, we solved chronic hot water issues and successfully project-managed a £750,000 major works programme.
• Luxury Estate Care: We manage high-end developments, such as a four-house estate in Hampstead Heath valued at £8m per property, overseeing complex communal plant rooms and underground garages.
• Crisis Management: From rescuing stalled construction sites to fixing leaking roofs in neglected conversions, we thrive on bringing order to chaos.

A "No Surprises" Financial Approach

We know that service charges are often a point of contention. That’s why we operate an open-book policy. You can see your accounts at any time. We provide:

1. Individually tailored management programmes.
2. Transparent service charge budgets agreed well in advance.
3. Long-term maintenance plans to avoid unexpected "emergency" levies.
4. Strict contractor management to ensure you get value for every pound spent.

Hands-On Operations

We believe being visible on-site is vital. We visit our buildings as often as required, not just when there is a problem. From handling Section 20 procedures to ensuring fire safety compliance, we manage the "legal stuff" so you don't have to. We make the transition from your current manager easy by handling the entire transfer process on your behalf.
