How To Evaluate Potential Cell Sites.
The mystery about selecting good cell sites is that no one can see into the crystal ball of any individual carrier to see where thy are thinking about improving the coverage in their wireless network. AirWave Management specializes in helping landlords who have already been contacted by cellular carriers navigate the choppy and often times shark-infested waters of cell tower leasing and development. Without a doubt, there is a growing demand for new cell towers and rooftop wireless sites across the United States. There are currently over 140,000 cellular sites nationwide with an additional 100,000 new cell phone towers needed by 2020. We can improve the chances of you location being selected by one of the cellular companies.
Potential Cell Tower Raw Land Site?
If you are trying to get a carrier to select your location for cellular site development, do a quick site assessment to see if your location could support a cell phone tower. Make sure you have 2,000 square feet of ground space available for wireless development that you'd consider leasing to a wireless carrier, or space available on a flat rooftop. A good cellular tower site has an elevation equal with or higher than surrounding properties, is not in a flood zone, marsh or wetland, environmentally protected area or historical district. We are seeking properties with a good live of site to the areas the carriers are trying to cover. Cell Towers can be developed on:
• Residential Property • Parking Lots • Self-Storage Yards • Industrial Sites • Municipal Property • State Property • Shopping Centers • Commercial Properties • Farms • Recreational Parks • College Stadiums • Vacant land • Fire Departments • Ambulance Stations • Police Departments • Highway Departments • Churches
Potential Rooftop Cellular Sites?
If you have 1,000 - 2,000 square feet of available flat rooftop space or you are lucky enough to own a smokestack, you should submit your site information to a cellular carrier to see if it matches up with anything they are working on or have planned for development. The wireless carriers are looking for buildings from 30' to 75' in height and from three to seven stories tall. These can industrial, commercial or residential rooftops in or near major metropolitan areas, highways, bridges or retail areas.
Wireless Antennas can be mounted on:
• Apartments • Hotels • Self-Storage Buildings • Warehouses • Office Buildings • Church Steeples • Factories • Shopping Centers • Billboards • Smokestacks • Overhead Highway Signs • Hospitals • Schools • Farm Silos
Cell Sites - Additional Assessment Criteria
Is a Cellular Carrier Already Leasing Space From You?
You know your site is favorable for wireless development if you already have a cell site lease or have been approached by a carrier in the past. AirWave can help review and negotiate your cellular leases and can also assist you with cellular carrier lease negotiations,and take action to bring additional carriers to your cell tower or rooftop site.
