Very pleased with the front door…

Very pleased with the front door inspection carried out last week. The inspector was friendly, knowledgeable, and made me feel completely at ease. He explained the process clearly and took the time to answer every question I had. It’s not often you come across someone so patient and professional. Excellent service from start to finish!

Special Mention to Lydia!

While working with JFM, I have worked with various members of the team across all their properties, and everyone has always been so amazing to work with. More recently, I have been working particularly closely with Lydia who has been fantastic! She always provides all the information I need, meaning that I can get the jobs resolved quickly as we don't have to have a back and forth with questions which can be rare! It really has been a pleasure to work more with Lydia, and I can't wait to see how to progresses while with JFM

Exceptional Assistant Property Manager at Battersea Reach

I’d like to highlight the excellent service provided by JFM Management at Battersea Reach. The team is consistently professional and attentive, ensuring a smooth living experience.

A special thank you to the Assistant Property Manager, Jamesie Adams, for their exceptional support. He is incredibly diligent, approachable, and consistently goes above and beyond to assist residents. Whether it was resolving an urgent maintenance issue or providing detailed guidance on community policies, his efforts made a real difference.

Such dedication and warmth are truly commendable. JFM Management is fortunate to have such an outstanding professional on their team!

Hi Kate,

Apologies for the delay – we promise we’re quicker at paying invoices than replying to reviews 😅

Thank you so much for the great feedback! It’s been a pleasure working with you and your team. We really value strong partnerships with contractors who share our commitment to doing things properly – and yes, on time payments are part of that (we know how rare that can be!).

Looking forward to many more smooth projects together. Thanks again for the kind words!

Hi there,

Firstly – sorry for the late reply, we were busy passing this lovely message along to Desere (who is now walking around the office like she just won an Oscar 🏆).

Thank you so much for your kind words! Desere is an absolute star, and we’re thrilled to hear she made such a positive impression. She really does go the extra mile to listen and get things done – it’s great to see that recognised.

We’ll make sure she keeps her superhero cape on for next time too!

Exceptional Property Management – Thanks to Ola and Rachid!!

We have had a fantastic experience with JFM. From day one, they have been professional, responsive, and genuinely committed to maintaining a high standard of service.

Ola, the property manager, has been an absolute pleasure to work with—always approachable, organised and quick to resolve any concerns.

Rachid, the onsite building manager, is equally outstanding. He’s incredibly hands-on, dependable, and keeps the building in excellent condition. Whether it's routine maintenance or unexpected issues, Rachid is always on top of it with a friendly attitude and a high level of care.

It’s clear that both Ola and Rachid take pride in their work, and it makes a big difference. I feel confident and comfortable knowing the Lewisham Gateway is in such capable hands.

Hi there,

First off – massive apologies for the delayed response! We were busy high-fiving Ola and Rachid after reading this (they’re still smiling, by the way).

Thank you so much for your kind words and detailed feedback – it means a lot to us. We’re absolutely thrilled to hear that you’ve had such a positive experience at Lewisham Gateway. Ola and Rachid are a dream team, and we’re so lucky to have them steering the ship (and occasionally fixing it too!).

We’ll be sure to pass on your praise – though we may need to deflate their egos a bit afterwards 😉

Thanks again for taking the time to leave such a thoughtful review!

JFM Management of apartment blocks

JFM, through Jake Marshall, is now listening to our concerns and coming up with solutions. I had an external unknown car parked at my allocated parking space. JFM was able to resolve this matter swiftly. We are now updated by email regarding their course of actions. This is very helpful as it gives us a chance to have a say in the management of our flats.

Hi there,

Apologies for the slow response – we promise we weren’t ignoring you, just fashionably late to say thank you!

We really appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. It’s great to hear that Jake was able to step in and resolve the parking issue swiftly – those sorts of situations are never fun, but we’re glad it was handled quickly and clearly.

We’re especially pleased to hear that the email updates have helped you feel more informed and involved. That kind of transparency is something we’re continuously working on, so it’s encouraging to know it’s making a difference.

Thanks again for your kind words – and for your patience in waiting for our reply!

Hi Cjwd,

Sorry we’re a bit late to respond – but we really appreciate your kind words!

We’re glad to hear our fire door inspection chap left a good impression (they do try their best not to just appear mysteriously and disappear without a word!). Keeping residents informed during visits is something we care about, so it’s great to hear that came across.

Thanks again for taking the time to leave a review – it genuinely means a lot.

Outstanding Service from JFM Block Management – Battersea Reach

I've had the pleasure of working with Catherine Adams and her team at JFM Block Management at Battersea Reach, and I can honestly say they are a breath of fresh air in the industry.

Unlike many other companies I’ve dealt with, JFM genuinely cares about the residents and the community. Their attention to detail is evident – the site is immaculate, and their commitment to high standards really shows.

Catherine and her team are professional, responsive, and a true pleasure to deal with. If you're looking for a premium block management service that delivers on its promises, I would highly recommend JFM.

We’re especially pleased that our commitment to quality, community care, and high standards came through in your experience. That’s exactly what we aim for – and we’re delighted it made a real difference for you.

Thanks again for the recommendation – and for making our day

Great service provided by Carlene

Great service provided by Carlene. In general getting a response from a property manager is difficult. However, I spoke to Carlene and she took ownership of the matter and provided a speedy response and is monitoring the progress. Great communication and support. Well done.

Apologies for the slow reply — we’ve just finished passing your message around the Lewisham team (cue big smiles all round!).

Thank you so much for your kind words and generous feedback. We’re absolutely thrilled to hear that your experience has been such a positive one — and that Rachid and Ola have made a real impact. They’re both incredibly dedicated, and it’s always rewarding to see that effort recognised by the residents they work so hard for.

I’ve had a very positive experience…

I’ve had a very positive experience working with JFM, and in particular Ola, who has been incredibly professional, responsive, and thorough in her approach. Her commitment to resolving issues and maintaining clear, consistent communication has made a real difference.

Although Rachid is not part of JFM, his role as the Building Manager for LGW and his close collaboration with Ola has been invaluable. Rachid is extremely hands-on and proactive on-site — always quick to respond and focused on upholding high standards. The partnership between Ola and Rachid has been instrumental in driving positive outcomes for both the building and its residents.

Really grateful for the continued support and dedication from both!

Hi Tyrra,

Thank you so much for your thoughtful review — and apologies for our delayed reply (clearly Ola is faster at responding than the rest of us! 😅).

We’re so pleased to hear that your experience with JFM has been such a positive one, and that Ola’s professionalism and attention to detail have made a real difference. She’s incredibly committed, and it’s always wonderful to see that recognised.

We’d also like to echo your kind words about Rachid — while not officially part of JFM, he’s a fantastic partner and a vital part of what makes Lewisham Gateway run so smoothly. We’re lucky to work alongside someone so hands-on and dependable.

Thanks again for your kind feedback — it really does mean a lot to the whole team.
