A Different Kind of Commercial Real Estate Company
A commercial lease agreement is not a standard form; it’s a negotiated contract, and every clause in it was written by someone with an incentive. In most cases, that someone was the landlord’s attorney. The result is a document that, in its default form, systematically transfers risk from the landlord to the tenant: cost exposure, operational restrictions, exit barriers and…
Signing your first commercial office lease is one of the most significant financial commitments your business will make. Most first-time tenants approach this transaction the way they approach renting an apartment: focused on the monthly rent number, moving quickly to get the space they want, and trusting that the paperwork is more or less standard. It is not. Commercial leases…
If you’ve ever approached a landlord or a listing agent directly about commercial space, there’s a good chance you’ve heard some version of this: “You don’t really need your own broker. I can help you find what you need.” Sometimes it comes with a sweetener: “We can pass along the commission savings to you on the rent.” It sounds reasonable.…
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…
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.

If you are looking for a professional commercial broker that will always keep your best interest in front and work to ensure that you and your company's needs are met every step of the way, then you should hire Hughes Marino. They think outside the box, ask detailed questions, and went beyond our expectations. I strongly advise anyone looking for a commercial lease to contact Hughes Marino.

Relocating our campus was a major undertaking. We had been in our old space for 20+ years, and we have very unique building requirements. The Hughes Marino team was an invaluable partner from start to finish. They helped us to find, to negotiate, to budget and to build. All the while respecting the fact that we had an ongoing business to manage. And they continue to add value in our relationship as trusted partners and friends. Moving a business is an important and frequently challenging process; thanks to the Hughes Marino team we were successful beyond our expectations. I would not hesitate to recommend their team to any company approaching a real estate decision.

We believe if you represent both plaintiffs and defendants there's an automatic conflict, whether it be real or perceived. So it only made sense to choose Hughes Marino, a company that represents tenants only, to handle our lease negotiations in San Diego, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Houston and New York. 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.
We believe that it is our duty as a local business to give back to the community that nurtures us. That’s why we are proud to support the many nonprofit organizations that make Seattle a great place to live and work.
