If you’re thinking about selling your cell tower lease, here’s what you might want to consider:
- Research: First, figure out who you need to talk to in order to get a fair review and evaluation of your cell tower lease buyout offer or easement purchase proposals.
- Offer Review: Important to know if the buyout offer you’ve received is good, bad, average, or great.
- Valuation: Needed to determine what your cell tower lease is worth now and if it’s better to sell it now or keep it for the long term.
- Tax Questions: Find out from a tax professional how selling your cell tower lease will affect your taxes.
- Lease Buyout Negotiation: Negotiating your Verizon Wireless, T-Mobile, AT&T, American Tower, Crown Castle or SBA cell site lease buyout alone is probably not the best decision you can make, as the deck is stacked against you.
- Industry Practices: Be aware if cellular carriers or tower management companies might be working together in a way that’s not in your favor when you sell.
- Attorneys: Consider hiring an attorney to review your deal before you finalize it, but most know very little about cell tower leases.

Steve and Kevin from Tower Genius answer questions. Cell Site 101: What to do about a cell site consolidation?
A cell site landlord from Northern New Jersey had a question about a Sprint termination letter and offer to keep equipment on the roof of the building.
And what can I charge for a rooftop cell site in Bay Ridge Brooklyn? Landlord was only getting $1,000. It was a small cell and getting upgraded to a "bigger" Verizon Wireless small cell. Hmmmm that sounds like its really a macro cell site that identifies as a small cell. Shoe me the money!! 9 antennas and adding 140 more square feet to the lease area? At $1,000 that's highway robbery. Charge them a heck of a lot more. Call Tower Genius. 1-888-313-9750.
