ARMA

ARMA was founded in 1991 and is the only body in England & Wales to focus exclusively on matters relating to the management of residential leasehold blocks of flats, whether for investor freeholders or residential management companies.

• create and maintain an awareness amongst property owners, developers, residents as well as national and local government of the proper role of - and indeed need for - residential managing agents.
• provide a forum where members involved in the management of residential blocks of flats can discuss and develop management practices to enhance service to clients and lessees.
• promote the highest standards of management.
• fix and endeavour to maintain consistent standards of practice amongst members in an otherwise unregulated market.

ARMA members comprise selected firms and sole practitioners engaged in the management of residential leasehold blocks of flats in the UK.

ARMA has over 140 members managing some 450,000 units in around 16,000 blocks of flats, at least 50% of which are lessee-owned properties
