Yorkshire-based property management firm Barnsdales has acquired a Nottingham independent for an undisclosed sum.

Marriotts Commercial, an arm of Marriotts estate agency, is the fifth acquisition in two years for Barnsdales, which will now take over its portfolio of 19 apartment blocks with 566 leasehold properties, as well as 100 commercial properties throughout Nottinghamshire.

Founded in 1905, Barnsdales is now run by the fifth generation of the family. 

The company, which is based in Doncaster, also has offices in Sheffield, Cirencester, London and Manchester and has around 2,700 units under management.

Managing director Jason Barnsdale says: “Since launching our growth strategy in 2018, we have added over 1,600 units to our portfolio. Marriotts is another important acquisition for us and will help to strengthen our regional coverage as well as becoming a more sophisticated block manager.”
