Experience

Negotiating Power — Optimal Results

We pride ourselves on our client relationships. Here’s what a few of those clients have to say about working with Wasserman Commercial Real Estate:

“Rob Wasserman is one of the most conscientious, knowledgeable and personable brokers we have ever had the pleasure to work with. He is a consummate negotiator and always completely in tune with the real estate market. He really stands above the rest.”

Margaret M. Gunning
Barrister Executive Suites, Inc.
Executive Vice President & General Manager

“Working with Robert Wasserman is a pleasure. He is a creative and market-savvy professional who delivers results. When we hired him to find us an office space to lease, he did a superb job at showing us all of our options. He even presented us with options that we did not know existed, such as a building that was for sale but not yet on the market. In the end, this building turned out to be a perfect fit for us and a superb investment after Robert negotiated an outstanding deal for us.”

Richard J. Greene, Esq.
Greene, Fidler, Chaplan & LLP

“Robert and his team were very responsive to our real estate needs.  He negotiated excellent terms and tenant improvements which gave us great value for the term of our lease.  He was very knowledgeable about the state of the market which ultimately allowed us to negotiate an optimal transaction.”

Jim Artiano
Artiano & Associates

“Robert found us ideal space in a tight real estate market that fit our needs perfectly. He started representing us when we were a relatively new company. We then moved into 82,000 square feet where Robert secured a lease with multiple options to expand and extend. We now occupy approximately 140,000 square feet at a rate significantly below current market rates. Robert’s ability to tailor our needs and to negotiate a tremendous real estate lease on our behalf is just amazing. Not sure how you pulled it all off Robert, but we think the world of you!”

Privilege International, Inc.
Mark Darwish
Executive Vice President

“Without question, working with Robert has been an absolute pleasure. Not only did he out perform expectations at each milestone (search, find, negotiate and deal), but he brought a level of professionalism and integrity to the relationship that I appreciated as he worked on our behalf. This coupled by his extensive market knowledge and history in enterprise-level commercial real estate, facilitated an extremely smooth lease negotiation that delivered more value than what we ever expected.”

Scott Shaw
Executive Vice President
Six Foot Studios

“Over the years, our various business interests have owned, occupied, and utilized several million square feet of commercial real estate. About 10 years ago, after a period of inactivity, we found that we needed some assistance with our real estate.  We were introduced to Robert and shortly thereafter, he became our “go-to” real estate professional. Not only does he do a superb job in gathering all the relevant and necessary facts, he also takes the hype, hustle, and anxiety out of the real estate decision-making process. He is a consummate professional and represents us to our ultimate advantage. And, as welcome bonus, he is a super human being as well.”

Steven J. Manning
President
FYMC

“We hired Robert to find our firm a new showroom in downtown Los Angeles. We knew we needed a broker that would be instrumental in not only finding us the ideal space for our business, but someone who would negotiate the best deal possible for us. Robert delivered on all levels. His knowledge of the downtown market, available inventory, and landlords really made our selection process much easier. The deal he negotiated for us was amazing and it kept our out-of-pocket expenses to a minimum.”

David C Wheeler
President
PPG

“Robert Wasserman has represented our firm for over five years. He approaches every transaction with up-to-date knowledge, integrity, and responsive and dependable service. Robert is trustworthy, personable, respectful and diplomatic. Not only does he excel in solving standard leasing issues, but is equally capable with complex transactions. Additionally, Robert places a great deal of importance in establishing and maintaining long-term relationships. I recommend Robert, without hesitation, as one of the best real estate brokers in Southern California.”

Susan Coddington, IIDA
President
CDG Interior Design + Architecture

“My experience with Wasserman Commercial Real Estate was quite professional. Robert was personable and became a trusted resource throughout the duration of our office relocation project. On several occasions, my firm was able to convert Robert’s market knowledge and creative thinking to our advantage during the lease negotiation process. Robert’s networking and relationships with various relocation vendors also came in handy. My firm is extremely pleased to have had the opportunity to work with Robert and his firm Wasserman Commercial Real Estate.”

Mark X. Russo
Kelmar Associates, LLC.

“When our firm decided to sub-lease our Los Angeles office space, Robert, who is very well-versed about the commercial real estate market, was incredibly helpful.  Robert is professional, personable and detail oriented, and he was able to deliver the results we desired.  He gave us solid marketing advice, provided creative solutions and was a great negotiator.  If in the future we have the need for a commercial real estate broker, we would enjoy working with Robert E. Wasserman again.”

Loretta Morris
Delon Hampton & Associates, Chartered

“We have been working with Robert for many years.  He is the consummate professional.  Always available, cheerful, diligent and most importantly delivers results.  We have always found him to be a strategic, creative negotiator.  I wouldn't make a move without him!”

Pat Fasano

“Robert has amazing integrity, is professional and very personable, which made him the perfect person we needed to find our dream space.  Thanks Robert!  We love everything you did for us.”

Christopher and Sonya Dove

“I and my company have been the recipients of the good services of Robert Wasserman in my capacity as the National Director of Family Theater Productions, a venerable Catholic Television and Film company in Hollywood. During the negotiations and purchase of commercial property I found him to be a person of integrity and competence. He was well prepared for meetings with me and my staff as well as with the commercial property owners from whom we were seeking to make a purchase. In my estimation he had a thorough market knowledge and delivered results in a professional manner. I have no hesitations in recommending him.”

Fr. Willy Raymond, CSC
Family Theater Productions

“Robert is the most knowledgeable, conscientious, hardworking, dedicated, loyal, and honorable person my family has worked with.  His patience and dedication to results was far superior to any other real estate professional we have worked with, ever!”

Steve Varon

“Mr. Wasserman was untiring in his efforts to advise and secure a property for our organization and represent our interests. He kept me informed through every step of the transaction; guided and advised me, and most importantly, Robert listened to and considered my priorities and concerns. You should be proud to have a man of such dedication and integrity working for you.”

“Your honesty, hard work, and creativity proved extremely valuable to us. You impressed me with your desire to fully understand our needs and to locate office space that incorporated our specifications for size, quality, and flexibility for future growth. I am particularly impressed with your negotiating skills and pleased that you were able to leverage a great deal in a high quality building. The fact that you were able to negotiate the term of the lease to incorporate our possible future needs for expansion was an added bonus. I would recommend your services wholeheartedly to other TRC offices and any other company that is in need of commercial representation.”

J. Todd Stanford, REA, REHS, CEM

“We appreciate all that you did to help us make the move. We had worked with other real estate agents in the past and were not pleased with the results. But after a couple of visits with you we were very comfortable and together quickly found new office space to fit our needs. Thanks again for your work.”

Irene Weibel
Vice President

“I just wanted to thank you for your kind assistance in helping me to find a new office that satisfied my budget and my needs. No small task – despite the fact that I “only” needed a small space. Thank you, too, for your willingness to address ongoing concerns even after I was in my new office. Your patience and persistence are greatly appreciated, Robert.”

Laura Ferretti
Impact Philanthropy

“I would like to thank you so much for negotiating the lease terms at my new location. Having you handle everything allowed me to concentrate on other big tasks at hand. After being at the same location for 31 years, your expertise allowed this to be a smooth transaction. Your negotiating power got us the deal we hoped to get. You really fought well on our behalf. If there should ne a need to move again in the future we know we can trust you thoroughly to represent us.”

Victor Migenes

“We would like to let you know how much we appreciate the hard and diligent work you put into finding us a wonderful office here in Santa Monica that is perfect for our needs. We would also like to say thank you so much for helping us through the negotiations with the owners. It’s been a pleasure working with you and we hope to be coming back to you in the future for other projects.”
