The Future of Cell Tower Lease
Join us for an in-depth webinar on the evolving future of cell tower leases as the industry adapts to the challenges and opportunities presented by the 5G rollout.
Despite significant investments, the expected surge in demand for data has not materialized, leading carriers to adopt cost-cutting measures, including aggressive lease negotiations and relocation strategies. We discuss how these trends impact leaseholders, including the implications of lower lease rates, increased attempts at renegotiation, and the growing influence of financial institutions and new market entrants.
Gain valuable insights on protecting your interests in this changing landscape and explore strategic options for your lease.

Impact Of 5g On Cell Towers And Tower Leases
Carriers are adding 5G to towers, and small cells are still being deployed. This is a webinar on what will happen to cell towers and cell tower leases as a result of changes from 5G. We start with an overview of what 5G is and how it will be deployed. We then examine the upside to tower owners and site owners from 5G modifications. Lastly, we delve into whether terminations of existing leases are possible or probable as a result of small cell deployment.
Questions to be answered include:
- Will small cells replace towers?
- Will towers become obsolete?
- Will 5G improve the value of my tower?
- Is my lease at risk?
