“We needed much more than typical brokerage services for our headquarters project. That’s why we chose Tactix. Their creativity, comprehensive financial analysis and extensive experience with large, complex real estate transactions – from both the legal and business perspectives—made them a valuable part of our project team.”

Barton J. Winokur
Chair
Dechert LLP



“Sunoco significantly upgraded our buildings and improved operational efficiencies and flexibility while substantially reducing our total real estate costs. Until Tactix came on the scene, we never thought we could have achieved all of these important objectives.”

John Wolchko
Vice President, Shared Services
Sunoco


“Hiring a pure tenant representation firm was critical to us.  We didn’t want to have to worry about conflicts.  That’s why we chose Tactix.  They have always been tenacious advocates for our company’s interests and their loyalties are never in doubt.”

Bart Houlahan
President

“Clearly, Tactix Real Estate Advisors were the best tenant reps in town and had a reputation for fiercely representing their clients to get the best available terms. They are very knowledgeable. Our situation required them to learn a new market, Princeton, and they really did their homework. A lot of landlords don't like tenant reps. They view them as the ‘hired guns’. In our negotiations, Tactix maintained a good relationship with the landlord. “

Clifford Swain
Real Estate and Financial Partner
Drinker Biddle & Reath LLP



“We have a very strong real estate practice and were an educated client.  It was no doubt a challenge dealing with us, but Tactix responded well.  They worked well with all of the parties and were sensitive to law firm issues.”

Richard Jaffe
Partner
Ballard Spahr Andrews & Ingersoll, LLP



“Unlike other brokers who call to promote a particular location, Tactix became actively involved in virtually all phases of the project, including needs analysis, site selection, competitive bidding, contract negotiation and more.  Their legal background proved to be extremely helpful.”

Nancy C. Broadbent
Vice President, CFO
CollaGenex Pharmaceuticals, Inc.

 

“The people at Tactix were amazingly inventive about ways to squeeze a little more out of our options and make them more flexible or more economically valuable.  They came up with very unusual solutions and improvements.”

Walter H. Schumacher, Esq.
Assistant General Counsel
Elf Atochem North America



“Because we were a small user in a very tight market, it became apparent there was little willingness on the part of the building owners to make accommodations for us. Tactix was able to apply very creative ideas to get a better response for us. There are many users of space who attempt to negotiate their new leases on their own. They will never be able to do what Tactix did for us; in fact, they will never even come close.”

Lawrence E. Newhart
CEO
Storeroom Solutions, Inc.

 

“At one point in the process, the people at Tactix were working so hard and doing so much for us, constantly attending meetings, showing us sites, preparing proposals; we thought maybe we were their only client.  It was just that Tactix provided great, great service.”

Bradley Hall
President
UGI Enterprises

 

“I often hold Tactix out as an example to consultants we use in other areas as a company who really ‘gets into the shoes and socks’ of their customers.  They had the same sense of urgency about the project as we do, concern about the same issues, and are a vigorous and effective advocate on our behalf.  It is the combination of their knowledge of the marketplace, skilled negotiation techniques, and having credibility within the real estate community that makes them so effective.”

William R. Hamm
Vice President, Administration
Day & Zimmerman



Tactix negotiated a better build-out allowance, more favorable rent terms and, most importantly to us as a growing company; they got us very favorable exit options. When I compare the lease we are under in our existing space to the one Tactix negotiated for us in the new space, it is obvious what a difference they made.”
