What is the appropriate lease rate for our property/building?
The answer is that it depends upon the uniqueness of the subject site. By that we mean whether the carrier could just as easily find other properties nearby to lease. Lease rates for cell towers can run from as low as $100 a month to $15,000 a month for very unique properties. The average lease rate (considering all cellular leases in the U.S.) in our database is around $900/mo. The type of lease, and the location of the cell site, highly impact the valuation. We have dealt with leases on both ends of this spectrum and all between.
