For managing agents & property managers

Utility Billing for Block Managers

A specialist utility billing service that drops into your block management workflow — reducing the hours your team spends on meter reads, allocations and reconciliations, while improving recovery rates and client reporting across the portfolio.

  • UK-based support
  • Transparent billing
  • Automated invoicing
  • Accurate reconciliation
  • Residential block specialists

Reduce the admin burden on your block management team

Utility billing is one of the most time-consuming parts of running a residential block. Meter reads, supplier invoices, allocation rules, leaseholder queries and end-of-year reconciliation can swallow days every month — and the work tends to fall on the most experienced people on your team, because the consequences of getting it wrong are commercial.

We were built to take that work off your plate. As a specialist utility billing service for block managers, Utility Rebilling handles the entire utility recharge cycle — from supplier bill to resident invoice to year-end reconciliation — under your brand, and aligned to how your firm already operates.

Accurate billing and reporting your clients can trust

Every invoice we issue is traceable back to a supplier cost, a meter read and an agreed allocation rule. Residents see exactly how their charge was calculated, which dramatically reduces disputes and the volume of queries that hit your inbox. RMC and RTM clients receive a clean monthly report they can present at board meetings without further work.

Built for client accounting requirements

We understand the difference between landlord-supply costs, on-account charges and balancing adjustments — and we structure data so your client accountants and auditors can pick it up without re-formatting. Monthly summaries feed into your PMS, year-end reconciliations match supplier statements, and every charge has an audit trail back to the underlying invoice. The service charge accounts add up first time.

Managing communal utility costs across a portfolio

For agents managing a portfolio of blocks, the value compounds. You get a consistent process across every site — the same data structure, the same reports, the same allocation logic — which makes it far easier to spot anomalies, benchmark consumption and brief directors. When a block changes managing agent or moves between portfolios, the billing data goes with it cleanly.

Integration with block management processes

We work alongside the major property management platforms — Qube, Propman, Re-Leased, MRI and others — feeding agreed journals back into your client account so your PMS remains the system of record for the service charge. You don't switch software, you don't retrain staff, and your clients don't see any disruption. We just take the utility leg off your team.

Transparent, commission-free pricing

Our fees are fixed and disclosed up front, per unit, with no commissions from suppliers. That means the price you quote your client is the price they pay — important when service charge transparency is under more scrutiny than ever.

  • White-label invoices under your managing-agent brand

Frequently asked questions

How does outsourced utility billing fit alongside our property management software?

We sit alongside Qube, Propman, Re-Leased, MRI and the other major systems. We issue and collect the utility charges, then feed the agreed journals back into your client account — usually as a single monthly summary plus a per-unit breakdown. Your PMS stays the system of record for the service charge; we just take the utility leg off your team's plate.

Will our clients see we've outsourced the billing?

Only if you want them to. We can white-label invoices and resident communications so everything appears under your managing-agent brand, or run fully co-branded if you'd prefer to highlight the specialist support.

What happens at year end when we close the service charge accounts?

You receive a full reconciliation showing supplier costs in, resident charges out, payments collected and any variances — formatted so your accountant or auditor can drop it straight into the year-end pack. No spreadsheet wrangling, no end-of-year scramble.

Can you handle blocks that are mid-year with messy historical data?

Yes. We routinely onboard blocks where the data is incomplete, the meter reads are stale or there's a backlog of unbilled costs. We rebuild the picture, agree a sensible cut-over date with the agent and the client, and run a parallel month before going live.

Do you provide reporting we can share with our clients?

Yes — every block gets a monthly statement showing supplier costs, charges raised, collections and arrears, plus a per-unit audit trail. It's the report most agents currently build by hand for client meetings.

How are your fees structured?

Fixed, per-unit and fully disclosed before you onboard a block. We never take supplier commissions, so the price you see is the only price your client pays.
