Testimonials
What our clients say about us
The Best and Brightest
Our team is proud to have represented some of the most incredible
businesses and organizations in the country.
"Commercial real estate representation is about ethics, domain knowledge and concerns for what is best for the client. The firm of Hughes Marino was founded by some of the most experienced and trustworthy tenant representative commercial real estate brokers in Southern California. They have built a team with unparalleled ethics, energy, attention to detail and domain knowledge. Hughes Marino has represented several of the companies I have founded, including Peregrine Semiconductor Corp. (NASDAQ:PSMI). As important as that was for the growth of my ventures through a partnership I established with the principals over 20 years ago, it pales in comparison to what they have contributed to the creation and sustainability of the most important program in the Southern California innovation economy, the EvoNexus technology & life science incubator. The Hughes Marino team represents many of the early stage ventures in the EvoNexus portfolio and do so with the venture's goals and growth strategy top of mind. EvoNexus is fortunate to have Hughes Marino as a strategic partner."
"We have a long-term relationship with the Hughes Marino team that goes back 17 years. They've handled many projects for us, including our corporate headquarters in Carmel Valley, our San Diego Service Center in Kearny Mesa, and numerous branch locations throughout the county, including our main downtown office. They're very professional, and they have good, solid market information. You're not concerned that they're also representing one of the landlords you are negotiating with because they only do tenant representation, which for us is important."
"The Hughes Marino team was an invaluable resource to the Downtown San Diego Partnership in negotiating our current lease and ensuring the design and construction of our new home was completed on time and on budget. We absolutely love our new space. It's everything we wanted. The Hughes Marino Construction Management team guided the design team in designing to our needs and budget, and then proactively managed our expectations throughout the entire construction process. The new space has lifted team morale, and has given us a space in which we're proud to welcome our members and host our numerous events. I can see why so many companies trust Hughes Marino, I would absolutely recommend their services to others."
"Hughes Marino was instrumental in finding our new office and negotiating a great lease. As a nonprofit organization, we are limited by a tight budget and specific needs in terms storage space and geographic location. Hughes Marino was incredibly helpful throughout the entire process and we could not be happier with our new office."
"Hughes Marino was key to the realization of our 50,000-square-foot facility. Their innovative approach and first-class expertise enabled a highly complex project to run beautifully and efficiently. The New Children's Museum and hundreds of thousands of families thank Hughes Marino for making our home a reality."
"Hughes Marino helped achieve more than I anticipated was even possible. Their understanding of the market, creative approach and persistence helped us renegotiate a lease renewal that saved us a move to another site and saved us considerable expense. And, even better, their services were paid for by our landlord. I would recommend Hughes Marino to anyone leasing office or lab space."
"Hughes Marino stepped into a very challenging timeline and negotiating position and were still able to achieve meaningful improvements and necessary modifications to the terms of our lease renewal. They did so in a manner that was professional, practical, and focused. We would definitely work with Hughes Marino again."

"Hughes Marino has my highest of recommendations. They provided exceptional results, knowledge and professionalism, and delivered far beyond our expectations. Anaptys Bio's facility needs will be well served for years to come."
