Ashtons Block Management

Emily and Tana and Diane, are all worth their weights in gold!! they have helped me so much with so much patience after pushbacks and set backs!! Also Tana on the aftercare, when I was being harassed by another company for old fines, this person went above and beyond to get the tickets cancelled!! Without them 3 people, this would have turned into something different and they are all worth their weight in gold and such a asset to the company!! couldn't have done enough!!!

Following a struggle to gain a response from Mulberry Management on several occasions I can now highly commend Tana who is an outstanding member of staff who dealt with my enquiries highly efficiently.

Increased our development’s Service Charge without sufficient explanation and won’t respond to emails or telephone calls when residents query the increase. The Public Open Spaces on the development have never looked as unkempt since they took over. Obviously beyond their capability to manage freehold developments. Unprofessional company which should be rated with zero stars but unfortunately this is impossible to select.

Mulberry PM - as ‘property managers’ this company is beyond INCOMPETENT - my experience of them chimes with the those of the previous 2 ‘negative’ reviewers. We are a small block of 6 flats ( 5 of us are freeholders) and - unbelievably - we were landed with - an electricity bill of over £4,000 for our communal areas for an 18 month period - Mulberry hadn’t bothered to read the meter when they took over our block and so failed to notice when a heavily discounted rate (negotiated by our previous managers) had expired. To try and cover up this incompetence, Anya Mathewson then claimed this had happened because our previous property managers had failed to provide them with the details of our electricity account. I was able to prove this was NOT TRUE and when presented with the evidence, Anya simply said : “we dropped the ball” ??!! This is just one of the examples we experienced of Mulberry’s total INCOMPETENCE as property managers. The property management industry badly needs properly regulating, but Mulberry is one company that has helped to give it a bad name. If you are looking for property managers, I recommend you don’t touch Mulberry with a barge pole !!!! As Mulberry is well aware, I can provide fully supporting evidence for everything I have said above.

Disappointed with Mulberry’s service, feel like we were promised a superior service by going with a company that’s charged a bit more and that was more local to us and they failed to deliver. Very little has been done over the last year and we have had to push for some services to be delivered, when this has happened, staff have not been particularly helpful and have had to be emailed multiple times without a satisfactory resolution. Mulberry dropped us after a year of management, we feel this was at least in part due to our insistence on getting the services we had paid for, or failing that, a refund on the services we could prove we hadn’t received.

Mulberry Management Services have done an excellent job of getting our building into extreme debt, removing essential services, pretending to not understand the laws and codes of conduct in which they are required to understand and follow, and treating not only their customers but staff members like dirt. I wouldn’t trust this company to post a letter, let alone manage a building in future. And I highly advise that other buildings avoid them.

What can I say about a company that is a pleasure to work with, who has friendly & helpful staff and always seems to have a solution for everything regarding Block & Almshouses Management. A great team to work with and always professional.
