A new year prompted a new announcement for MLP and we are now excited to share that HML Hawksworth Limited, the subsidiary of HML Holdings plc, covering the geographical area of central and east London has purchased the entire share capital of MLP.
HML Holdings plc have been providing property management services to the residential sector for over 25 years and, through specialist divisions, also offer clients related professional services including insurance broking, company secretarial services, building surveying and the employment and management of site staff employment.
Their business strategy focusses on providing a local and personal approach from 12 offices, with HML Hawksworth being the first of the HML companies, starting life in Chelsea in 1991! They have grown considerably and now manage over 6,000 units from offices in London SW1 and EC3.
With a varied portfolio which includes mansions blocks, private estates and luxury riverside developments – the high level of service they provide goes hand in hand with the MLP strategy. Nigel Glen and Richard Kozak, founders of MLP, will continue as consultants to the business. The business and all of its employees will continue to operate from our offices in Bermondsey.
Commenting on the acquisition, Rob Plumb, Chief Executive of HML, said:
"We are delighted to welcome the MLP team to the HML group. MLP's culture and business model offering a high service level to local property owners is entirely compatible with HML's. Having this additional presence in central London and the Docklands will be a significant advantage for us in the future".
