Why Us
There are larger firms. Here is the honest case for using this one.

At a large public brokerage, a practice leasing five thousand square feet is a small file, and small files get assigned to the most junior person on the team. That is not a criticism of those firms; it is the arithmetic of how they are staffed and compensated.
Partners is owned by the people who do the work. The brokers who create the value own the firm, which is why an experienced broker takes your requirement rather than handing it down. For a practice, that difference shows up in what gets negotiated and what gets missed.
If your next location is in a market where we do not have an office, the large firms would route you to whoever sits in their own local branch. We do the opposite: we go find the best broker in that market, whether they work at CBRE, Cushman & Wakefield, JLL, Newmark, or an independent shop, and we run the assignment with them. You get the same national coverage with better local service, and the local broker keeps more of the fee, which is exactly why the good ones take our calls.
A leasing commission is built into nearly every lease whether or not the tenant has a broker, and it is split between the landlord's broker and the tenant's broker. Negotiating alone does not save that money. It sends all of it to the person sitting on the other side of the table from you.
What We Bring
Partners has an investment arm and an in-house development team. If the answer to your problem is buying a building or building one, that expertise is in the same firm rather than a referral out.
A senior vice president of research and a marketing team support the deal work, which is how a five-thousand-square-foot practice gets the analysis normally reserved for a corporate requirement.
Partners Healthcare Services exists specifically for medical, dental, and veterinary clients. Healthcare real estate has its own rules, and a generalist learns them on your lease.
Our own dataset covers 2,600+ medical buildings across San Antonio and South Texas, so a quoted rate gets checked against what comparable space actually trades for.
Common Questions
Many practices do, and it costs them money in ways that are invisible without a comparison set. The landlord knows what every other tenant in the building pays and what the last five deals in the submarket looked like. Without that, you are negotiating against someone who can see the board.
It would be if we insisted on covering every market ourselves. We do not. We bring in the best broker in each market regardless of what firm they work for, which in practice produces better local service than being routed to a large firm's junior person in that city.
Partners is a full-service firm and does handle landlord listings. We will not represent the landlord on the other side of your negotiation, and if a building you are considering is one of our listings, you will know that in writing before you engage us.
Nothing out of pocket. The landlord or seller pays the fee.
No cost, no obligation, and we will tell you if you do not need us.
