About us

Marriotts was first established in 1860 and grew to become one of Nottingham’s largest independent estate agencies, letting and property management, commercial property and surveying practices. The partnership disbanded when the senior partners retired in early 2020, with the individual property disciplines being sold to other established property companies.

Mike Collins and Suzie Phillips took over the Mapperley office in February 2020 and Marriotts today remains a totally independently run estate agency which we are very proud of!

Both Mike and Suzie worked in senior roles within Marriotts previously, and remain completely dedicated, both actively work hands-on alongside our experienced, knowledgeable, long serving and dedicated team.

Living and working locally all the team are committed to providing the best customer experience to our clients, using their expert knowledge of the sales and lettings process and local area.

You can have the peace of mind that you are dealing with a long-established firm which is dedicated to achieving the best possible outcomes for our clients.
