Testimonials
Brian Dombkowski, CEO
Our firm engaged Marc Trovato of Kidder Mathews to assist us in securing a lease for high-end view space on the top of the Embarcadero 4 building in San Francisco. Given the competitive nature of the market for this type of space, we needed a broker that could swiftly quarterback designing and estimating the cost of the improvements, and Marc's efforts allowed us to quickly determine whether to move forward with the building. Marc's ability to streamline the process allowed our firm to move swiftly to secure a lease for our new home.
Beyond his technical expertise, Marc was a pleasure to work with—communicative, proactive, and truly invested in our success. His professionalism and dedication is a cut above, and I would recommend Marc to any organization seeking a knowledgeable and results-driven real estate advisor.

Mindy Ross, Founding Partner
I am pleased to write this letter of recommendation for Marc Trovato, who provided outstanding office leasing advisory services to our law firm. As a busy professional, I greatly appreciated Marc's dedication and expertise throughout the process of evaluating our options within the San Francisco office space market.
Twelve months prior to our existing lease expiring, we engaged Marc to help us determine whether to renew our current lease or relocate to a new office space. Rather than requiring me to visit potential spaces in person, Marc took the initiative to video relevant spaces and conduct thorough inspections, saving me a significant amount of time and effort. Marc consistently provided thoughtful responses to all our questions and often anticipated our needs by answering questions before they were even asked. Marc's proactive communication and understanding of the situation proved extremely valuable to our firm. Even after our lease renewal, Marc has continued to support us by addressing any issues that have arisen during the lease term, including helping to correct errors in billing from our landlord, etc.
Marc's expertise in evaluating the financial implications of each option helped us secure highly beneficial terms, including 15 months of free rent on a six-year lease. The space continues to serve our firm exceptionally well, and we are grateful for Marc's recommendations throughout the negotiation process.
I have no hesitation in recommending Marc to any firm looking for quality office real estate representation. Please feel free to contact me if you require any further information.

Over the course of three separate office lease transactions—one office relocation and two lease renewals—Marc Trovato has continued to exceed our expectations in what we expect from our office leasing advisor. Our latest transaction turned out to be a battle with our existing landlord and Marc navigated the transaction seamlessly, delivering terms that substantially beat any of the lease "comps" we had seen for our building.
We strongly recommend Marc to any company looking for an office advisor to assist with their office lease.
Chris Sullivan, Partner
I have worked with Marc Trovato with two separate law firms and now through five separate leases - he has always shown that he is willing to go the extra mile to ensure that we are well informed of our options, different lease scenarios, and all cost implications associated with committing to an office lease. He is incredibly responsive and I can always count on him to update me ASAP, which is great to know when there is a time crunch. Marc has always presented all information in a concise manner, allowing me to make the most of my time, and making a business obligation that I am not at all excited to deal with that much easier. He always organizes things efficiently to save time (e.g., lease tours, updates, and such.)
I highly recommend his services to any company in need of the services he provides. You should hire him!
Greg Robley
I am pleased to recommend Marc Trovato for his exceptional guidance in helping MWA Architects secure a new office lease in San Francisco. We faced a complex market with over 30 viable options, and Marc skillfully guided us through the evaluation process, ensuring that we made informed decisions every step of the way.
Thanks to Marc's strategic approach and keen market insights, we secured a space that exceeded our initial expectations—gaining more square footage than anticipated, while staying within budget, and acquiring improvements tailored to our firm’s specific needs. What initially seemed like a daunting endeavor turned into a seamless and successful transition, thanks to Marc's professionalism and dedication.
I highly recommend Marc Trovato to any business seeking expertise in navigating the office market in San Francisco. His ability to streamline the process and deliver results was impressive and we will look forward to working with him again.
