Bill Fuller Joins Newmark

Commercial real estate industry veteran Bill Fuller has joined Newmark as a principal in the global real estate services firm’s San Francisco office.

Over the course of his 20-year career in office landlord and tenant representation, Fuller has participated in negotiating nearly five million square feet of lease transactions valued at $2 billion. Prior to joining Newmark, he worked for 10 years as a leasing and marketing manager for the San Francisco regional office of Hines, where he was responsible for day-to-day leasing/marketing activities for the Houston-based international developer’s Bay Area projects. During this period, he co-managed leasing and marketing efforts for the properties of numerous Hines partners, including Nippon Life, UBS Realty Advisors, National Office Partners (a Hines/CalPERS partnership), Sterling American Properties and TIAA-CREF.

Prior to Hines, Fuller was a senior leasing associate with Washington, D.C.-based Cassidy & Pinkard, where he was responsible for leasing commercial office space in the D.C. area. Working with both tenants and owners in this marketplace, his client list included MBNA America Bank, Equity Office Properties, Yarmouth Group Inc., and Koll Real Estate.

A graduate of the University of Virginia with a BA in English, Fuller’s community involvement activities include working as a fundraiser for the Juvenile Diabetes Foundation. He is also a member of the Capital Club Inc. of Washington, D.C.; and the Belden Club of San Francisco.
