Property firm wins Park Central contract

Residential and commercial property specialist Centrick has won a contract to manage part of development of homes in Birmingham.

Centrick’s building and estate management division has been instructed at Park Central, south of Birmingham city centre, to manage around 650 homes by E&J Estates.

The new contract is another coup for Centrick, said building and estate management director Sarah Hammond.

“Our team is having a fantastic year, winning major contracts across the country. We were recently appointed to manage the Spectrum development in Manchester and to follow that up with Park Central in Birmingham is a wonderful testament to the strength of our estate management division.

“Park Central is a desirable place to live, conveniently located on the outskirts of Birmingham city centre. We are looking forward to working alongside our client and all the residents to maintain the buildings and communal areas, while improving communication and the delivery of services,” she added.

Park Central is a large, mixed-use, development comprising of more than 1,500 apartments and houses. A 15-year regeneration project at the site of the former Lee Bank estate was delivered by housebuilder Crest Nicholson in partnership with Birmingham City Council and Optima Community Association.

Centrick managing director Phil Johns said: “Park Central is a wonderful example of the regeneration of this great city and we are very proud to be appointed to deliver building and estate management services. Winning the instruction is another major vote of confidence in our team.”
