Owner-User Representation
Representing you on a purchase the same way she represents you on a lease — one principal, start to finish.
Most Brokers Split Their Loyalty. Peninsula CRE Group Doesn’t.
Here’s what most tenants never find out:
The listing broker on a building doesn’t work for you. His duty runs to the landlord. So when he tells you the terms are fair, he’s not lying — he’s just not on your side of the table.
At many large firms, your lease can also get handed to a junior broker the moment you sign. At Peninsula CRE Group, you work directly with a principal who has 15+ years of institutional experience.
It doesn’t matter how big or small your space is. You get the same principal, every time.
One Principal. Every Lease. No Hand-Offs.
Corina tours every building herself. She shortlists the real contenders and puts landlords in competition for your business.
That competition is where your leverage comes from. Better rent. More free months. Real tenant improvement dollars.
Whether you’re leasing space or buying a building to occupy, Peninsula CRE Group represents one side of the table. Yours.
One Principal, Working Every Corner of Southern California
That same principal-led process covers every service and every submarket.

The Largest Lease Corina Has Closed at Peninsula
A growing, family-owned business came to her stuck. They were successful and expanding fast, but weren’t getting meaningful engagement from landlords or listing brokers, and couldn’t find a facility that fit their operations.
Corina led the search, identified the right property, and negotiated 100,000 SF on a 10-year lease term, start to finish.
She also negotiated substantial tenant improvement dollars, rent abatement, and terms that lowered their occupancy costs and preserved capital for the company’s continued growth.
More Wins Like It
That’s one of many completed transactions — office, industrial, retail, and medical office, across new leases, renewals, and relocations.

Peninsula CRE Group Isn’t for Everyone
-
If you want a broker who also lists buildings for landlords
Look elsewhere. Peninsula CRE Group represents tenants and owner-users — never landlords.
-
If you’re searching for a place to live
We can’t help. This is commercial space only.
-
If you think going straight to a building’s listing broker saves you money
It doesn’t. That broker already works for the landlord.
-
If you want a big national team where your lease gets passed to whoever’s free that week
We’re not that.
-
If you want the fastest, cheapest close with no touring and no comparing options
We’re not that either.
-
And if you need property or landlord management once the lease is signed
That’s outside what we do.
But if you want one principal fighting for your terms, from the first tour to the signed lease — that’s exactly what Peninsula CRE Group was built for.
Ready to Get a Principal on Your Side?
The earlier you start, the more leverage you keep.
Using a tenant rep broker typically costs you nothing out of pocket. The commission is generally already priced into the lease whether you use a broker or not.
