James R. Parrish opened the Santa Cruz office of J. R. Parrish in 1978. Initially focusing on leasing industrial buildings, as the company grew, it began representing office & R&D buildings. In the mid 1980's, the company began marketing investment properties and, in 1992, retail brokerage was added. The Santa Cruz office is locally owned and managed.
With several agents, J.R. Parrish is the largest commercial real estate firm in the Monterey Bay Area. We have leased and sold property and buildings in every segment of the market.
We have worked with hundreds of local companies ranging from start-ups to multi national publicly traded companies. We locate companies within the market, from outside the County to within the County and from this County to all over the Country.
During our weekly sales meeting, we are able to talk openly to each other about our clients and their needs. This is a unique situation in commercial real estate offices. This open discussion enables a free flow of information which is critical for timely marketing/locating of property, and provides an environment friendly to transactions.
As a company, we strive to be straightforward in our dealings with our clients as well as other brokers and their clients. Our goal in brokerage is to foster an atmosphere of mutual commitment to completing the transaction. You can expect us to give our honest opinion as to a course of action, regardless of our gain. |
