Life Science Real Estate Services

From project inception to our grand opening celebration, Hughes Marino was with us every step of the way. The on-time/on-budget result was a magnificent state-of-the-art campus that now enables legendary discovery to scientists around the globe.

They go way beyond finding you a space—it’s more like a relationship with an industry specialist. The level of service and attention to detail is exceptional. It’s been a great relationship.

Hughes Marino has talented real estate negotiators, strategists and advisors and they are a pleasure to work with. They understand our future laboratory goals and objectives while keeping an eye on all of the details associated with a complex relocation assignment. We remain a loyal client of Hughes Marino and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a great tenant broker firm

Hughes Marino helped us clarify our requirements and surveyed all of our options. Through their robust process, their team negotiated the building of our choice and preferred location to become the low-cost leader. In addition to covering most of our tenant improvement costs, they were able to negotiate the credit enhancement requirements down to a favorable level. They also negotiated a year of free occupancy so we could move into a portion of the premises now in order to meet our immediate expansion requirements. Hughes Marino provided guidance on the schedules and cost evaluations to refine our tenant improvement scope and will oversee the remodel of the new facility. We could not have pulled it all together without their collaboration and tireless support.

Hughes Marino has represented me at multiple medical device companies where I’ve been CEO and they have been an instrumental partner in supporting our growth and understanding our requirements. They have spent the time to get to know our operational requirements and our financial goals, executing as fierce advocates on our behalf. Hughes Marino is the go-to firm in representing medical device and health care companies that have specialized requirements like ours.

Hughes Marino has proven to be our trusted partner globally for all of our real estate acquisition, disposition, renewal and lease administration services. Supporting the company in over a dozen projects throughout the United States and Europe, the leadership and support we’ve received around all of our corporate real estate has been exceptional. Their team is proactive, insightful and provides tremendous coaching for our entire senior leadership team. Their advice has always been direct and creative, always with our best interests in mind.

I have worked with Hughes Marino over several decades and have successfully completed more than a few major projects from start up through expansion phases. The Hughes Marino team has always proved to be professional, detailed, dedicated and most importantly, they get the job done! Their continued follow up, post deal, has always been appreciated as well. I highly recommend them.

As a spin out of a larger company, Agena had less than 12 months to hire an executive management team and build the infrastructure to support a new company with worldwide revenues approaching $50 million. This included IT systems, finance and administrative teams, as well as a new corporate headquarters including R&D and manufacturing. Hughes Marino listened closely and helped guide an efficient and highly effective, accelerated process of selecting and negotiating a new facility in just four months. Hughes Marino’s unique in-house construction management team seamlessly took it from there, delivering an on-time, on budget tenant buildout from the ground up in just five months. We could not have asked for more, or been more happy with the results.

I can’t say enough good things about Hughes Marino. They were referred to us by one of our investors. We were trying to cut our rent in half, and we were already in a lease that had expired. Needless to say, we had little leverage to negotiate. Hughes Marino’s detailed knowledge of the lab market and improvement costs, not to mention our landlord itself, made this deal come through. We were on a short timeline to execute and reduce our monthly costs. Hughes Marino pulled through. We were able to cut our rent in half five days after the lease was executed. I am very happy we had Hughes Marino represent us as they did an excellent job. I would be glad to recommend their services to any business that has real estate needs.

Hughes Marino has my highest of recommendations. They provided exceptional results, knowledge and professionalism, and delivered far beyond our expectations. AnaptysBio’s facility needs will be well served for years to come.
