“The properties managed by NewMark Merrill Companies in District 2 are consistently clean, well secured, and landscaped in a way that adds to the neighborhood in which they reside. We have been lucky to have them as a part of District 2. Ms. Santos and her team are significant partners in our effort to bring commerce and employment opportunities to South Sacramento, while uplifting the community in which they do business as the same time. They understand that in today's business climate shopping centers need to be centers of community.”

“Our work in the community crosses path with area businesses, property owners, and other community groups. We are always excited to see corporations, such as NewMark Merrill Companies, taking initiative improve the community they work in. Having clean, well-managed, and professionally maintained landscaping, commercial properties is important to urban communities like ours. In addition to taking pride in their work in our community, NewMark Merrill Companies gives back to local non-profits in both their time and resources.”
