What We Do
As a leading digital infrastructure company, we help property owners monetize their wireless ground or rooftop leases. We acquire the property interests that underlie the existing telecom asset and provide a lump-sum payment to you in exchange for the future rent paid by tenants at the site. We’re committed to providing solutions designed to meet your financial goals.
Why Sell Your Cell Site Lease?
The Time Is Right
Demand for cell sites continues to expand due to exponential cellular and data usage, driving enhanced values for wireless ground or rooftop leases. While interest rates rise and values fluctuate, now is a good time to take advantage of our ability to offer the most competitive cell site lease buyouts.
Immediate Capital Puts You in Control
Ready to take control of your financial future? If you wish to pay off debts, complete a 1031 exchange, pay college tuition, reinvest, or kick start your business, a cellular lease buyout could be your solution.
Most landlords find that reinvesting the proceeds from a cell tower or rooftop lease buyout can generate significantly stronger growth over the long term than their cumulative monthly rent payments.
Minimize Risk
As the wireless industry continues to evolve, the risk of a rent reduction and site decommissioning or lease cancelation is always present. A lease buyout allows you to pass this risk onto us and secure your sizeable payment, before it's too late.
Minimize or Defer Your Potential Tax Liability
Structure the transaction to fit your financial needs - whether qualifying for capital gains treatment or deferring your tax liability with a 1031 exchange—our team is happy to work with you. Always consult your tax advisor for qualified tax advice.
Additional Revenue From Future Tenants
When weighing the pros and cons of selling your rooftop lease, it's beneficial to consider how a lease buyout may lead to additional income in your pocket. After completing a lease buyout, you can partner with American Tower to actively market your property to new tenants, providing you with the opportunity for additional future revenue.
