Benjamin Osgood possesses a combined 14 years in sales, leasing and marketing experience and provides real estate advisory services to commercial office tenants in the Bay Area, with an emphasis on sustainable real estate strategies. Benjamin began his career in real estate listing commercial properties for several of the Bay Area's most prominent landlords and developers (Legacy Partners, Gray and Reynolds Properties, Graham Street Partners, Ellis Partners, McGrath Properties). His background in landlord representation has provided him with a well-rounded perspective which allows him to more effectively and aggressively represent the needs of office tenants. Benjamin is committed to living sustainably in both his personal and business life, and works closely with his clients to devise a plan that capitalizes on the intersection of sound economics and sustainably responsible business operations. The positive impact of incorporating sustainability into the real estate strategy can be substantial; office occupancy costs are typically the second largest expense on a company's balance sheet, while office buildings are the single largest energy user in California's commercial sector. A green office not only benefits a company's bottom line, but also creates a healthier, more productive work environment that the Bay Area's talented labor pool demand.
