Battersea Reach is JFM’s first major…

Battersea Reach is JFM’s first major residential and commercial appointment. While JFM are directly employed by St George, the Freeholder, it was in fact the Residents’ Association that requested their appointment, with the intention of establishing a closer and more collaborative working relationship.

JFM commenced at Battersea Reach in June 2024. Their performance to date has been mixed: in some areas they have delivered well, while in others they are still finding their footing. Greater knowledge in certain aspects, closer attention when overseeing projects, and clearer communication with the Residents’ Association are all areas that require improvement.

It should also be noted that three buildings at Battersea Reach remain under the management of another agent, as their Freeholder declined to transfer to JFM.

Looking ahead, it is anticipated that Battersea Reach may achieve Right to Manage within the next 1–2 years. If JFM demonstrate consistent improvement, the new RTM company may choose to retain them. It would therefore be in JFM’s interests to bear this in mind when making future decisions on behalf of leaseholders.

Carlene Howard was the most helpful person I have had the privilege to speak with lately. I had been set an automatic booking that I was unable to attend. However, after a brief email and phone conversation with Carlene, she swiftly managed to rebook me on a more suitable date.
Many thanks for taking care of customer service in this way. We missed this in many other providers

Efficient - a real service - thank you!

Many thanks to the Admin team who were quick, friendly and efficient. I needed a copy of the block insurance schedule in order to effect and exchange of contracts on a clients sale. I can think of one national management company that takes 10 days to read your email let alone respond so quickly. I would recommend this management company and particularly the Admin team any time.

Excelent service

I had my flat front door inspected recently and I couldn't be happier with the service. Adrian was professional, respectful, and very thorough. He took the time to explain everything clearly and answered all of my questions with patience and detail. It was reassuring to know the inspection was done properly and that safety is being taken seriously. A big thank you for such a smooth and informative visit, truly appreciated!

Adrian was fantastic—punctual, polite, and clearly knew what he was doing. He made what I thought would be a boring inspection surprisingly reassuring. Everything was explained in plain English, no jargon. It’s great to have someone who takes safety seriously and still makes time to answer your questions with a smile. Top job!

Hi Claudiu,
This review made our day—thank you! Adrian will be chuffed to know his plain-English charm and inspection superpowers were appreciated! 🚪✨ We know these checks can feel a bit dull, so we’re delighted it felt more like a reassuring visit than a chore. We’ll pass on your kind words to Adrian—and maybe even print them out for his wall (or at least the staff room fridge 😄).
