Brian Mulvaney, SIOR, CCIM is a Senior Vice President and Partner in the San Diego office and our broker highlighted in this issue of the Voit’s “Meet Our Professionals” Broker Profile Series.
Brian Mulvaney has spent nearly four decades building a career in San Diego commercial real estate rooted in a simple philosophy: do the right thing, even when no one is watching. Raised in a family devoted to philanthropy, he found his way into the industry after a stint studying advertising and television at UC Santa Barbara — a path he abandoned once he realized its ethics didn’t align with his own.
Mulvaney began his brokerage career at C.W. Clark, before being recruited to Grubb & Ellis in 1993, where he sourced a $150M multi-asset portfolio and earned his CCIM and SIOR designations. In 2000, he and five teammates joined Voit, drawn by our entrepreneurial culture and the flexibility to work across asset types rather than being pigeonholed into one. Today, Mulvaney’s practice spans tech, life sciences, industrial, and office sales and leasing, with clients including Qualcomm and General Atomics.
Prioritizing the client's best interest over short-term gain compounds over time. That's evident in a 52,000 SF Poway industrial building deal from a few years ago, where Mulvaney's relationship-first approach led to repeat assignments, a win-win sublease/termination structure, and an unexpected renewal fee — all rooted in relationship equity.
Beyond brokerage, Mulvaney has dedicated years to mentoring the next generation of dealmakers and to philanthropic work with Father Joe's Villages and the Boys to Men Mentoring Network. His guiding belief — that success is measured by the success of clients and colleagues, not personal gain — shapes both his business practice and his approach to giving back.
