I thought this maybe of interest to people living in The Gardens as I believe they're the gardens mentioned in the article that are owned by Tilt.


Grainger acquire portfolio of 309 units in London (taken from construction and maintenance news)


British residential property firm Grainger plc has acquired the entire shareholding in The Tilt Estate Company Limited, which owns over 300 residential units, for ?47.9 million. The total property portfolio is valued at ?62.5 million and is located in East Dulwich, London, SE22, with the majority of properties situated around a private garden square.


Two thirds of the properties are subject to assured shorthold tenancies and over 50 are subject to regulated or assured tenancies. They therefore increase and strengthen Grainger's existing portfolios. In addition, the portfolio is in line with the Company's acquisition criteria, as it offers a number of opportunities for Grainger's in-house property and asset management teams to add value. This is particularly significant to ensure the benefits from any potential long term upside in this improving area are delivered.


The portfolio currently generates a total rent roll of ?2.2 million per annum. A number of the properties are currently vacant and therefore offer immediate opportunities to enhance income and the assets' underlying value. The purchase, from Wainford Holdings Limited, has been funded from existing facilities.

Yes, one of my earliest memories going with my mum to the Tilts offices and down into that little office with the rent book. One Christmas the old lady handing over a wrapped Christmas present although can't remember what it was. Certainly the end of an era.

Tilts used to donate a raffle prize in the annual garden fete that was held in the Village - the field by the old school. The prize was a week in a holiday apartment in a building they rented out (and perhaps owned too?) right on the river in Marlow. The only time I ever won a decent raffle prize was the summer I won this - and the Tilts people instantly gave me a free upgrade to the 3 bedroom apartment in the same building that actually overlooked the river, complete with shaded balcony where you could breakfast and feed the swans and watch the boats and anglers...


So I am sorry to see them go...:))

    • The problem with delivery people nowadays is that they are on such a restrictive schedule that they literally have to just try to deliver and run, otherwise they are penalised. I understand the frustration though.   And good luck making any kind of complaint to Evri. I once sold a laptop on ebay, took it to the Evri pick-up, where it was processed and it then went 'missing' between their pick-up place and the hub. Went through a long, long process where they offered me a desultory amount in compensation and I had to take them to small claims court before they came up with a fair offer the day before we were due to be in court. Long story short, Evri are shite.   Go to look at this forum for the number of people who have issues: https://nationalconsumerservice.co.uk/forum/183-postal-and-delivery-services/
    • I haven't had a rude EVRI delivery but last week I had an unexpected delivery at 10.42 pm. He didn't ring the bell or knock on the door (or rattle the letter flap) but just took a photo and put the box down.  If it hadnt been for the door camera giving us a beep we would never have known there was a parcel ready to sit there all night.  
    • Sorry if I’m being slow but there’s no point in having a gate then is there?  Would have thought it was basic manners to respect someone’s property 
    • I didn't say wedge it "slightly" open. I meant to wedge it fully open.
