Getting a Cell Phone Tower Lease on the Property

As the wireless industry continues to enjoy popularity, tower leases become attractive options for individuals who wish to make their land more profitable. Having a cell phone tower on their property is certainly a good way for landowners to make money with increased profits, as the area and the tower can be constantly developed for better service. However, not all properties are ideal for a cell site.

Property owners can check if they are located within a mile of an existing cell phone tower. The presence of even one tower reduces the chance for their property to be considered. Properties in urban and suburban areas or those located near a major highway or a populated town are more likely to be considered, because there will be more people who could possibly use the service.

Another factor that determines if the property is a perfect location for a cell site is if the pending location is an industrial property surrounded by residential properties. If so, then there’s a good chance that the property will be considered as a cell site candidate. However, the reverse (that is, a residential location in the midst of industrial properties) is less desirable, and it won’t make for a good candidate.

Properties on the highest point in the county are seldom considered, as well as those that are in areas with no network coverage at all. This is because some providers may not have plans to extend their services yet to such locations.
