Living Way×JAR Speak to our team →
A partnership of Living Way & JAR

Two specialisms. One standard. A building residents choose.

One operator for the whole building. We manage it, let the apartments, run the resident community and keep it all compliant, so freeholders and developers deal with one accountable team, never a relay between firms.

Modern London residential building
London · Mixed-tenure Well-run buildings, residents who belong.

Built on two proven track records

JAR,Independent London managing agent, est. 2012 Living Way,Hospitality-grade rental operator Regulated · CMP · TPI · TPO
Built for complexity. Loved by residents.

Most buildings are run by people who manage them, and let by people who never see them.

That split is the problem. A block manager keeps the building compliant; a separate letting agent fills the apartments and has to telephone the block manager whenever something breaks. Handoffs, days lost, and no one accountable for whether residents actually want to stay. Living Way × JAR closes the gap: one team owns the building, the apartments, the fixes and the community, so the asset runs better and the people in it choose to belong.

Two strengths, one operator

One operator, built from two specialisms.

Management, lettings and community, run by one operator, in any building in London. One brand, one team, one standard.

Living Way

Knows how to lease, and build lasting communities.

  • Mobilisation & lettings, filling buildings, holding renewals
  • The resident community: people, programming, platform, places
  • The customer relationship and the brand residents actually see
  • Hospitality-grade living, benchmarked on Roco
JAR

  • Estate & block management across complex, mixed-use buildings
  • Building safety, compliance and the regulated backbone
  • The contractor network, on site and accountable

Leasing, management and community, under one brand. The brand wins the heart, the heart wins the building.
What we do

One team across the whole building.

Four lines of service, delivered as a single platform, so freeholders and developers have one relationship instead of four.

One building, one app, one number

A building that runs on a real platform.

We've built the resident app that holds the whole building together. Every resident reports a fault, pays rent, books a space and joins what's on, in one place. Behind it, our management and lettings run from one system, so nothing slips through the cracks.

  • One Call repairs

    Report anything once. We own it end to end, apartment and building, no relay between agents.

  • Rent, bookings & documents

    Pay, book amenities and find every document in one tidy place, for residents and owners alike.

  • A live community

    What's on, who's going, and a verified, neighbour-only space, the belonging that keeps people in the building.

Why we win where others can't

The only operator doing all three.

Traditional block managers
Management only

Keep the building running, but have no claim on the apartments or the people in them. Capable, but not connected.

Manage, not let, not community.
High-street agents
Lettings only

Fill the apartment and move on, with no stake in how the building runs or whether residents stay.

Let, not managed, not community.
