Yes. Custom Hall changed from Wyse to Core and it was a big improvement and costs less, with more into the sinking fund. David Ward was the property manager. Overall a very positive experience. Great to get hands on management.
Do you have connections with the company?
We have Core EM in my development, Linden in Blackrock and they have managed to reduce the management charges by a third, which I think is pretty rare (I have never heard of management charges reducing, only rising).
Cheers
Our fees went down 2 years in a row. Due to the work of the owner directors, not our agents!
as for the other owners appreciating it - you must be joking. They're too busy complaining about them not being allowed to have satellite dishes :d
I am shocked that anyone has had a positive experience with Core Estates. They took over in our apartment block and we have had nothing but grief ever since. I know of two people who have threatened legal action due to false claims by them.
Easy to have a co-operative agent when they are told they are on dodgy ground and with about 10 nearby developments using them, a lot of damage could have been done to their reputation had we dumped them!
