I have been in Pasadena (since 1993) Hoss and I have crossed paths several times as we have leased in the area. He ins't your typical Commercial Realtor. He communicates well, is responsive and cares about putting you in the right spot, not just the spot that he has available. He is a true pleasure to work with.

MacVaugh and Company has managed my property in Pasadena Old Town for about 8 years and I've been very pleased with his service. Services include both, leasing empty space (finding prospective tenants and negotiating terms) and interfacing with the service providers to accomplish TI work and general maintenance of my 27,000 sf building. Five stars.
