If you are a volunteer director or a leaseholder who helps to run your building, you already invest time to keep everyone’s home safe and well looked after. The right Brighton block management company should make that role easier. In a coastal city with listed facades, sea weather and lively neighbourhoods, you need a managing agent that understands local conditions and acts before problems grow.
Why a proactive company matters in Brighton
Effective Brighton block management is more than paying invoices and arranging cleaning. Salt air, wind exposure and heritage features require thoughtful planning, regular inspections and clear communication. We focus on planned maintenance, honest budgeting and visible on site management so that service charges remain steady and your building stays in great condition. You hear from us without needing to chase and every update is delivered in plain English.
What good management looks like
We carry out regular site visits and provide clear follow ups so directors and leaseholders can see what has been done and what comes next. We plan major works in advance and set realistic budgets that reduce surprises. We keep you informed about building safety and fire safety requirements and explain what is relevant to your block. We work with trusted local contractors which improves response times and keeps pricing sensible. Our approach is hands on, accountable and built around people as well as buildings.
Where we already work in Brighton and Hove
Wishtower supports blocks across Brighton and Hove and the wider area, including Brighton, Worthing, Lewes, Hove and Newhaven. From Regency terraces and period conversions to modern coastal apartments, we tailor our service to the character of each building and the needs of its community.
Commercial expertise when required
Brighton has a diverse commercial scene that includes independent retail, studios and offices. Our commercial property management team brings structured maintenance planning, energy saving initiatives and precise service charge administration to busy spaces that welcome high visitor numbers. The same organised and transparent standards apply as in our residential work.

Red flags that your current agent may be slipping

Your manager is rarely seen on site

Updates on safety checks and planned works are vague or delayed
