Cell Tower Lease Rates Exposed

What are average cell tower lease rates? That depends on many factors, but the dirty little secret in the cell tower leasing industry is not the amount of rent that you are receiving on a monthly basis.

Cell Tower Lease Rates Are Only As Good As The Terms You Agreed To.

Here's the dirty little secret about cell tower lease rates that carriers don't want property owners to know about:

• Wireless carriers pay many of their leasing agents (site acquisition consultants) performance bonuses for bringing in leases at lower rates and with favorable terms.

• A 1% difference in yearly rental increases can easily equal a difference of a whopping $170,000 over the 25-year lifetime of the typical cell tower lease.

• On a three carrier cell tower that's over a half million dollars lost revenue over 30 years if you or your attorney don't know what to demand during the cell tower lease negotiation.

• A carrier may pay their leasing agents a few hundred extra dollars to get you to agree to this type of rate, and they have many other price points for which they pay out performance bonuses – ALL of which come directly out of your pocket in the long run.

What's The Bottom Line For Cell Tower Lease Rates?

The average cell tower rent is going to vary from county to county and state to state -- and they also differ depending on which carrier you are dealing with, they amount of pain they have (bad coverage and tough zoning laws), and their budgets.

For example, as I write this page in New Jersey, where our company is based, we are currently (2009) negotiating deals with various carriers in different counties between $19,000 per year ($1,583/month) and $36,000 per year ($3,000/month), so it really comes down to supply and demand.

How can you truly know if you are maximizing your location's profitability?

Talk To A Cell Tower Leasing Expert.

We help land owners and building owners maximize the rental rates that they receive on their cell tower ground leases and rooftop cellular site leases with all major wireless carriers including Verizon Wireless, Sprint Nextel, AT&T Wireless (Cingular), T-Mobile (Omnipoint), Clearwire (4G), Metro PCS, LightSquared Broadband (4G).

But even more important than the rental rates -- we pay extremely close attention to the TERMS. Yes, we've just about seen it all and can tell you without a doubt that ALL cellular site leases are heavily slanted in favor of the wireless carriers. We level the playing field. We know where there is wiggle room to negotiate, and where their isn't, where we can push the carriers to accept terms, and where we can't, and where we can squeeze them for better rates.

And no, we are not attorneys. But the partners of our firm have literally reviewed and negotiated thousands of cell tower leases over the courses of our combined careers, and can quickly and efficiently review your contract and negotiate on your behalf.
