Cell Tower On Your Property Page

In going over our website statistics, we noticed that there is an increasing interest by landowners in having a cellular tower erected on their property.   Since 2007, over 150,000 unique visitors have visited our website and gone to this page.  There seems to be a clear trend that the number of visitors per month to the page has been increasing.   Clearly the economy plays a part in this- landowners are looking for any ancillary revenue they can find.   We suspect that increased awareness about cell tower leases and the potential revenue from towers is driving this trend as well.

Unfortunately, trying to get a cell tower lease is like trying to win the lottery except your odds are better with the lottery.   Out of over 10,000 people who have ever contacted us asking how they can get a tower lease, only one has ever contacted us back and said they actually got a lease by contacting the carriers.
