Frequently Asked Questions:
Commercial real estate includes properties used for business purposes, like offices, retail, industrial and multi-family spaces, leased or purchased to support operations or generate income.
A tenant representation broker, like Hughes Marino, works for tenants and owner-occupiers, not landlords, unlike the majority of our commercial real estate competitors. This eliminates conflicts of interest and ensures your needs come first.
It means our only loyalty is to you. We do not represent landlords, so you can trust our advice is unbiased and always in your best interest.
A broker brings market knowledge, commercial real estate negotiation expertise and a fiduciary duty to protect your interests—often uncovering savings and opportunities you might miss on your own.
In most cases, our fees are paid by the landlord or seller, and we disclose all compensation upfront for total transparency.
When exploring these options, we analyze your total cost of occupancy, capital availability and flexibility needs to recommend the best structure for your business.
Tenants are the customer in the commercial real estate ecosystem, and as the customer, you likely have more options and leverage than you realize. By working with a commercial real estate broker, more specifically, one who only represents tenants such as Hughes Marino, you can evaluate your needs, go to market strategically and negotiate lease terms that reflect your business outlook—not outdated landlord norms—while creating flexibility and control.
When your lease is up for renewal, remember that your landlord or their broker is focused on the landlord’s interests, not yours. A dedicated tenant representative like Hughes Marino provides unbiased guidance, explores alternatives, negotiates favorable terms, and helps ensure your next lease supports your team’s needs and business goals, all at no expense to you. Similar to selling a home, a landlord (seller) has already agreed to pay a commission to their broker. When you (buyer) are represented for your lease by Hughes Marino, that commission gets split with us. There is no additional out-of-pocket cost to you.
