How the block
gets walked.
Five blocks from brief to handoff — the same route whether the holding is a condominium or a portfolio.
The walk
route.
Each block produces a record — that's how mandates stay posted, not just active.
Brief & scope
The owner states the property and the service; the office answers with a written mandate — scope, term and fee named before the work.
Block walked
The property is examined against the mandate — condition, tenants, obligations and access noted, the sheet updated before work begins.
Service run
The work runs under the mandate — rents and assessments posted, appraisals issued, escrows opened, findings filed to the same sheet.
Owner reported
The owner receives the file — collections, findings and condition reported on a set cadence, not on request.
Sheet handed over
The mandate closes with the walk reconciled — sheet, findings and sign-off handed over and kept for reference.
Rules the office
walks by.
Posted first
No work before the mandate — a written scope in place of a handshake.
Sheet over memory
Rents, assessments and findings live on the walk — the record, not recall, is the truth.
Walked block
Condition, tenants and obligations noted before work — the sheet stays open only if it's walked.
Held funds
Escrowed money and client interests handled on trust — disclosed, segregated, never commingled.
Sheet handed over
Walk sheet, findings and sign-off go to the owner at close — the record is theirs.
Scope is plain
What's managed, appraised or escrowed is stated in the mandate — exclusions named, not assumed.
Asked at
the office.
Describe the property and the service — the office answers with a written mandate including scope, term and fee. Nothing runs without the mandate posted.
Yes — escrow agencies and fiduciaries' offices run like every other line: mandated, opened under written terms and reconciled on the walk.
A written valuation — block walked, comparables filed, opinion of value stated with the assumptions named. It goes on the same sheet as the rest.
Frequently — a management mandate that needs an appraisal or a listing touches two wards. The mandate names the wards and the work runs as one sheet.
Post the ward,
on the walk.
Describe the property, the service and the schedule — the office answers with a written mandate.
