Tenant Representation
Commercial space is a tenant’s home away from home, so intended use, building quality, amenities and access all play a significant role in determining whether a location is a ‘yes’ or a ‘no.’ And even if a tenant is already in their ideal space, good negotiations are key to ensuring continued satisfaction.
Presidio provides full-service tenant representation from finding the space, negotiating deal points and overseeing improvements. And because relationships don’t end once the deal closes, Presidio is there long-term to re-negotiate when that lease comes to term.

Mercado El Rey
With locations throughout Southern California, Mercado el Rey had been looking for years to enter the Santa Barbara area. But finding just the right spot for their Latino style grocery was challenging. Size, location, competition, terms and demographics all played a significant role in defining the perfect spot.
After years of frustration identifying the strategic combination of attributes in a grocery location, they turned to Presidio Real Estate’s for help with regards to local knowledge of demographics, regulatory codes, zoning and market availabilities for help. Blake Andrews presented many options over several years but there was nothing available that checked all the boxes. Andrews persisted, monitoring the market and informing his client immediately of any new prospects.
Eventually persistence payed off and Mercado el Rey has since opened two locations in Santa Barbara. “We owe a debt of gratitude to Blake at Presidio Real Estate for staying on top of the market and keeping us abreast of each and every opportunity that arose. Once the right locations were found, Blake worked hard in helping us negotiate the best terms and close the deal. We plan on continuing to work with Blake to find additional properties in order to continue expanding our business” said Ray Qoed of Mercado el Rey.
