A Different Kind of Commercial Real Estate Company
By David Rubenstein At Hughes Marino, we often say our culture is the one thing we can never outsource. We’ve grown across the country, but what makes the company feel the same in every office isn’t a playbook; it’s our team. That’s what makes hiring one of the most important things we do, and it’s why I care so much…
By Shay Hughes Over the past few years I’ve written a lot about the ways we bring color and joy into our offices, from playful artwork and polka dot murals to comfy couches in emerald green, royal blue and vibrant red. It all comes back to one simple belief: the spaces we ask our teams to spend their days in…
The questions you ask up front shape every decision that follows. By Owen Rice & Gavin Curtis One of our clients in the professional services industry had spent nearly 30 years in the same building. When their lease came up, the obvious move seemed simple: renew or find another office of comparable size. Instead, we took the company through a…
By David Marino After touring thousands of office buildings over the course of our careers, paying attention to details becomes second nature. Long before we discuss square footage, lease terms or build-outs, we’re reading the small signs. Those details are clues to bigger things: how ownership actually operates and what you can expect over the life of the lease. …
We have worked with Hughes Marino since 2007. Since that time they have assisted with over 10 lease negotiations, several build outs and multiple moves. They take the phrase “full-service” to a whole new level as experts in not only getting the deal done but helping the business remain productive during construction associated with moves and expansions. We look forward to continuing to grow with them.

As a spin out of a larger company, Agena had less than 12 months to hire an executive management team and build the infrastructure to support a new company with worldwide revenues approaching $50 million. This included IT systems, finance and administrative teams, as well as a new corporate headquarters including R&D and manufacturing. Hughes Marino listened closely and helped guide an efficient and highly effective, accelerated process of selecting and negotiating a new facility in just four months. Hughes Marino’s unique in-house construction management team seamlessly took it from there, delivering an on-time, on-budget tenant buildout from the ground up in just five months. We could not have asked for more, or been more happy with the results.

So it only made sense to choose Hughes Marino, a company that represents tenants only, to handle our lease negotiations in New York, San Diego, Los Angeles, San Francisco and Houston. With over 150 lawyers and 275 support staff, we have very specific space and technology requirements and Hughes Marino has the expertise to manage our leasehold improvements. We’ve certainly benefited from their tenant-only focus and full range of services. They are tireless in their efforts.
