Presence & Co., an independent block management firm based in Tunbridge Wells, has strengthened its position as a leading independent block management firm in Kent.
The appointment of a new block manager has enabled the business to reopen availability for new residential developments.
The expansion comes after a significant increase in block management instructions between 2024 and 2025, alongside strong client retention driven by consistent service delivery and positive resident feedback. The additional capacity enables Presence & Co. to take on larger, locally based residential blocks across Kent and surrounding areas.
Claire, who joined the team in December 2025, brings extensive experience in residential block management and is supporting the company’s continued growth across areas including Sittingbourne, Tunbridge Wells and wider Kent.
Her addition to the team strengthens the firm’s people-focused approach, with an emphasis on proactive management, clear communication and regular site presence.
Claire, the Block manager at Presence & Co., said:
“Good property management is about more than processes, it’s about people. We’re dedicated to working closely with every community and delivering the level of service they deserve. We’re always ready to support developments seeking a more attentive and proactive agent.”
Presence & Co. operates a fully integrated property management service, bringing block management, facilities management, construction and compliance support together under one roof. This structure allows for faster response times, clearer communication and a more joined-up approach for residents and directors.
Tracey, a director from a residential block in Sittingbourne highlighted the positive impact of the change in managing agent:
“Since switching to Presence & Co. at the start of 2025, we’ve seen a remarkable improvement. Regular meetings and site visits have made a real difference, and the estate finally feels properly managed. I’d recommend Presence & Co. to anyone unhappy with their current agent, their professionalism has truly uplifted our community.”
With increased capacity and a growing local portfolio, Presence & Co. continues to position itself as a trusted, independent alternative for residential blocks seeking a more hands-on and reliable managing agent.
