Client Testimonials
"Having CBRE as our strategic partner has resulted in a streamlined transaction management process and overall occupancy cost savings due to consistent delivery of levered options and market expertise. CBRE has relieved a tremendous amount of internal workload while trying to always be strategic in their approach to our real estate portfolio. As time has gone on, we not only trust CBRE and the Houston Team, but we depend on them for the most current and accurate market information to ensure we are getting the best deal possible in any market."
"Insperity has been working closely with CBRE on our national portfolio for over 13 years and have come to realize CBRE is not just focused on the transaction. They are a trusted resource for benchmarking and demographic analysis to help identify the ideal office location based on our employee recruitment and retention goals, and our need to be close to our prospects and clients. We not only count on CBRE to help us with the site selection process but trust them with the Lease Administration of our entire portfolio."
"We embarked on a search for new office space for our headquarters in downtown Houston. Jon Lee and the CBRE team did a great job of educating us on the various options and negotiating a really strong lease that worked well with our operating expenses and long-term business goals. Additionally, the CBRE team has worked with us every step of the way in the design, layout, and finished "product". We are going to have a really exciting new office, and CBRE has partnered with us every step of the way."
"Jon has been an integral part of our firm’s move and expansion. He is a true professional, an excellent negotiator, and representative for our firm. He works as though we were his only clients, being quick to respond and available for any questions or concerns we may have. We benefit greatly from his expert knowledge and business relationships."
“Rich and his team have been an integral partner with us on multiple assignments throughout the
years. Most recently, the team guided us in a nationwide search for our new corporate headquarters.
After a thorough market search and evaluation, we selected a brand new building in downtown
Houston. The team provided a variety of specialty consulting services which not only helped identify
the perfect location for our people, but also drove tremendous savings through workspace
optimization and tactical lease negotiations. His market knowledge, experience, responsiveness, and
ability to calmly navigate challenges are characteristics that we valued during this monumental
headquarter relocation.”
“I have known Rich for more than 18 years and consider him to be a trusted resource and advisor
when it comes to real estate matters. When we started discussing headquarter relocation scenarios, I
reached out to Rich for assistance. His expert guidance throughout the process was instrumental in the
project’s success. Not only did he and his team help identify the ideal relocation options, but his
skilled negotiations probably saved us millions in the final determination of our headquarters
location. You don’t always realize how important a dependable and experienced real estate partner is
until you’re in the middle of the real estate process, and I am happy to say that Rich and his team
exceeded all our expectations from start to finish.”Related Services
