JFM are stopping sales of properties in our development
JFM instructed a firm as part of the window and door replacement in our block to carry out the works. This firm has not provided the relevant FENSA certificates for these works well over six months later. They have been informed, repeatedly that without these certificates it will be impossible to sell any of the properties or even claim against warranty. JFM, specifically the Operations Director, Nick Gibbs has now palmed this situation off to the freeholder, Homeground but the situation remains the same. Leaseholders in the block are unable to sell their properties at this time.

We’re thrilled to hear the service was fantastic from start to finish — that’s exactly what we aim for (with just the right balance of brainpower and enthusiasm!). Being called "knowledgeable and eager to help" is music to our ears — we might even print that on a mug.

Jamesie is currently blushing—we had to remind him to stop smiling and get back to work! 😄
Seriously though, thank you for the amazing feedback. We're thrilled he could help you out quickly and with all the detail you needed. We’ll make sure he gets a gold star (and maybe a biscuit 🍪).
Thanks again for taking the time to share your experience—it really means a lot to us!
A change for the better
JFM took over the management of our development a year ago, managing a 1200 apartment complex lease structure development is not an easy task.
I’m however quite pleased with the job that have done over the past year and I have certainly felt the change.
If I was to use a few words to describe them it would be “Slow but Steady”. Since they took over the improvement has been gradual but most importantly continuous. They are not without their pitfalls and they certainly could do a better job in communicating their plans but overall they are doing a rather good job.
Overall Catherine Adams is doing a rather good job and managing a well motivated team.

Hi Dr. Sheesh,
Thanks so much for the 5-star review — we’ll take “Slow but Steady” over “Fast and Chaotic” any day! 🐢✨
Managing a 1200-unit development is a bit like herding caffeinated cats with clipboards, but we’re glad the progress is showing. We hear you on communication — we're working on being less "mysterious" and more "master plan revealed."
Big cheers to Catherine and the team — they’ll be walking a little taller today after reading this!
Thanks again for the thoughtful feedback — steady we go!

Hi Jasper,
Thank you so much for the glowing 5-star review!
We’re absolutely thrilled to hear that Jamesie was able to help make the sale of your apartment a little less stressful (we hear he might secretly moonlight as a superhero 🦸♂️—his special power is replying to solicitors faster than the speed of light).
We’ll make sure he gets the praise he deserves—and maybe even a celebratory biscuit or two 🍪.
Wishing you all the best in your next chapter, and thank you again for taking the time to leave such a kind review. It really means a lot to all of us at JFM.

Helpful, personable service resolving lease/service charge issues

Hi GO,
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a review!
We’re really pleased to hear that Jamesie was able to swoop in like the service charge superhero he is 🦸♂️ and help resolve the issue after your staircasing process. We know how stressful these transitions can be, especially when things fall through the cracks, so we're glad he could step up and smooth things out.
We always aim for 5-star experiences (Jamesie’s now eyeing that last star like a true overachiever 😄), so if there’s anything more we can do to make your experience with JFM even better, please don’t hesitate to let us know.
Thanks again for your kind words, and welcome to this next stage of your homeownership journey!
Amazing customer service!
I was very impressed with my recent experience when calling JFM, I was transferred through to Sachin who I can honestly say was brilliant!!
I was so happy that Sachin was able to resolve my query about a service charge payment and he handled the situation with care and empathy.
Sachin was very helpful, he listened patiently, I felt heard and he did everything possible to make sure I had the information I required.
Sachin spent over 40 mins with me looking through many systems and files that was time consuming for him to find the answers I needed and even wrote an email and waited on the line to make sure I received it.
Sachin kept me informed the whole time as to what he was doing and how long it may take.
He was very professional and polite and I cannot sing his praises enough, he’s a real asset to JFM.
Thank you

The JFM team have genuine interest in helping
The JFM team are very professional and considerate. When they took over management of the residential complex, it was really refreshing to experience how they have genuine interest in addressing issues promptly and building a supportive community. I would highly recommend them to any residential block.

Dear Pierre,
Thank you so much for your lovely review — it truly made our day (we may have blushed a little in the office). We're thrilled to hear that you've felt the positive difference since we took over management.
We do take what we do seriously — just not ourselves! Our goal has always been to handle issues quickly and create a community where residents feel heard and supported (and hopefully a little less like they’re emailing into the void).
Thanks again for your kind words and your vote of confidence — it means the world to us.

Jamesie at JFM is simply THE BEST
Jamesie at JFM is simply THE BEST. I'm in the middle of selling my flat which naturally is difficult and I'm replying on JFM Management to answer some questions from myself and solicitors. I'm so relieved I have Jamesie to contact as she replies so quickly and helpfully it makes the whole process so much easier and less stressful which I really appreciate.

Dear Sophie,
Thank you ever so much for your glowing 5-star review!
We're absolutely delighted to hear that Jamesie has been such a help during the sale of your flat. Selling a property is rarely a walk in the park, but it's wonderful to know that Jamesie’s prompt and helpful support has made things a little smoother (and hopefully saved a few grey hairs in the process!).
We’re very proud to have him on the team—he has a bit of a reputation around here for being a bit of a superhero when it comes to client service (cape not included).
Wishing you all the best with the rest of the sale, and please don’t hesitate to reach out should you need anything else.
As a property management company
As a property management company, they should have taken responsibility for monitoring and maintaining the building’s boiler system. It's completely unacceptable that a central hot water boiler—less than 10 years old with an expected lifespan of at least 25 years—has already failed, and yet they refuse to take responsibility. Instead of engaging with the insurance or offering any enough communication or the proof, they’ve chosen to avoid the issue entirely, leaving residents to cover the full cost out of pocket.
I’m honestly speechless. I won’t name the building, but let’s just say it’s one of London’s more iconic developments—those who know, know. If you’re a fellow resident, give this a thumbs up. We deserve better.

Great Customer Service!
Our development only switched to JFM Block & Estate Management recently. Given the past history and ineffectiveness of our previous property management company, I was not sure how JFM would be any different. I must say, I have been very impressed with their performance so far. Any problems that I have raised has been dealt with right away.
I would like to give acknowledgement to Jamesie who went beyond with helping me resolve an issue I was having with a tenant. He was supportive and understanding and never tried to dismiss the problem. Despite getting push back along the way, Jamesie persisted and ultimately got my issue resolved!
I would like to thank Jamesie and Catherine, our property manager for doing a great job in supporting our development!

Does the company still exist? no response from them
I cannot speak with anyone on the phone or via email. Not sure if the company still exists. They didn't amend the contact details when we bought the property and we are not receiving invoices or the accounts information for the service charge.

Great service from Jake Marshall
The service we receive from Jake Marshall is great. He is attentive and responds to emails promptly. We are a small block of 30 flats which previously had little maintenance by the former freehold owner. Since the leaseholders enfranchised and appointed JFM there have been huge improvements. Hence the 5 stars.

Outrageous fees, appalling service and zero customer service
Appalling Service!!!
I am a leaseholder in a large development with nearly 100 properties that fall under the management of JFM. We have recently had new windows and doors fitted to large blocks of flats and JFM are refusing to provide FENSA certificates which is not only frustrating the residents who have paid over £10,000 for this but is also stalling potential sales in the development. We are also suffering considerable loss of water pressure in the larger blocks which JFM are refusing to address. Their appalling lack of due care and diligence and simple problem solving is now negatively affecting the lives of the residents as a whole. They overcharge for everything and the accounts are in disarray resulting in double payments and constant amendments. If they are your managing agents petition to get rid of them as soon as possible!
