Who is behind Urban Owners?
Steve Wylie and Steve Hooper founded Urban Owners having been left feeling frustrated, let down and short-changed by the various managing agents that they had come across over the years.
and selecting their own managing agents on a number of properties, they still felt dissatisfied with the level of service provided. The belief that there was an opportunity to introduce a new approach offering leaseholders both control and support in block management at a fair price led to the creation of Urban Owners.
To build a company that can deliver our unique balance of advice and delivery we have built the company on the following foundations. We believe these are essential for a block management company that can deliver value to leaseholders.
A philosophy to drive what we do and how we do it
We believe all our stakeholders need to know what drives the operations at Urban Owners and what we are attempting to deliver.
As a growing company we have the privilege of being able to recruit new staff and develop our own staff internally.
We recruit a mix of experienced staff and young staff that can grow and develop with us with the Urban Owners culture and approach. Each year we normally take on one paid intern to try and help them get real life experience and an opportunity to build their CV.
A commitment to support our staff in helping the community
We always aim for the company to act in a socially responsible manner and we support staff that want to support their community.
The company will always offer advice to clients that encourages solutions that reduce the energy footprint of our clients properties, makes our properties safer and make them more pleasant to live in.
The company will always promote office policies that maximise recycling and energy efficiency.
The company will support staff in activities to support our community in its broadest context. See below for a few of the actions of our staff that we are proud they have undertaken.
We work alongside homeowners and leaseholders, whether in a block of flats or an estate of houses, taking away the burdensome administration associated with property management and putting you firmly in control.
