Broad incumbents

• CBRE Group: The world's largest commercial real estate services firm, offering tenant representation, landlord representation, investment sales, and property management across all major US markets. Directly comparable to Commercial Partners' service stack, but at vastly greater scale.
• JLL (Jones Lang LaSalle): Global CRE services firm with deep tenant representation, capital markets, and project management capabilities. Multiple Commercial Partners brokers (e.g., Scott Swanson) came from JLL, evidencing the direct talent and service overlap.
• Colliers International: Global CRE services firm with strong West Coast presence. Michael McGinn of Commercial Partners previously worked at Iliff, Thorn & Company (Colliers International), evidencing direct service overlap.
• Cushman & Wakefield: Major global CRE advisory firm with tenant rep, agency leasing, and investment sales. Competes head-to-head with Commercial Partners for SF office assignments and is present in Seattle and Denver markets.
• Avison Young: Global, principal-led CRE services firm with strong tenant representation practice in San Francisco, Seattle, and across the Western US. Directly comparable independent-style brokerage model.
• Newmark Group: Full-service CRE firm offering tenant representation, investment sales, and leasing across major US markets including San Francisco, Seattle, and Denver — directly comparable geographies and services.
• Savills: International real estate advisory with growing US presence, particularly in San Francisco. Competes for the same enterprise tenant representation mandates as Commercial Partners.

Direct peers

• Hughes Marino: Privately held, San Diego-based commercial real estate firm specializing in tenant representation and corporate services. Most directly comparable US-based boutique peer to Commercial Partners' tenant-rep-led model.

Regional players

• Kidder Mathews: Largest independently owned CRE firm on the West Coast, with deep Bay Area, Seattle, and Portland presence. Directly comparable as a competing independent brokerage in Commercial Partners' core geographies.

Others

• CBRE Women in Real Estate Network: Not a peer firm per se, but CREW (Commercial Real Estate Women) is the industry association central to Commercial Partners' women-broker brand differentiation; relevant for understanding the competitive positioning on diversity-driven mandates.
