About us
Property people, first and foremost.
Tara Rez began working in property in Wimbledon in 1988 and founded Rentals and Sales in 1990, at the age of nineteen. Thirty-six years on, the business is still independent, family-run and local, and still closely involved in the buildings it looks after.
ROCA's block management grew out of that work: buildings looked after by people who understand them, with a named block manager you can speak to directly.

What we do
The whole building matters.
Building care
Regular inspections, communal areas and planned maintenance, with repairs reported online at any time.
Compliance and risk
Fire, health and safety, asbestos, water hygiene and the other checks your building needs, tracked and done on time.
Maintenance and contractors
Trusted contractors, fair quotes, reactive repairs and proper oversight of the work.
Financial management
Service charge budgets, demands, reporting and accounts, explained in plain English, where they are part of our instruction.
Boards and residents
Working with directors, attending AGMs, keeping residents informed and handling day-to-day queries.
Major works
Planning, quotes, Section 20 consultation and keeping everyone updated while the work is done.
Fixed fees, ordered online
Services for leaseholders and freeholders.
Need one notice, pack or document rather than full management? Many of the jobs a building needs are available at a fixed price including VAT, ordered online and checked by a person before they go out.
For leaseholders
Leasehold management packs (LPE1 or FME1) for a sale or remortgage, notices of assignment and charge, deeds of covenant, a summary of service charge costs, consent to sublet and pet consent.
For freeholders and residents' companies
Section 20 consultation notices, service charge demand packs, ground rent notices, Section 21 summaries, AGM papers, right to manage and arrears letters.
Our approach
Experienced enough to know. Independent enough to care.
We believe good management is calm, practical and consistently attentive. Buildings behave better when the people looking after them know them well, respond promptly and think ahead.
Our directors stay closely involved. Decisions are made by people who understand the building, the board and the wider property picture. Technology supports the work; it never replaces judgement or a phone call.
