Why HOA and Condo Leases Are Typically Below Market
HOA and condo boards face a unique set of challenges with cell tower leases. The original lease was probably negotiated by a developer, a previous board, or a property management company โ none of whom had access to current market comparables or specialist knowledge. That lease has been renewed or continued without meaningful renegotiation ever since.
Urban and suburban rooftop lease rates have increased dramatically in the 5G era. A rooftop lease in a dense urban neighborhood that paid $1,500/month in 2015 might reasonably earn $3,500โ$5,500/month today. The gap between your current rate and current market is your association's lost income.
Original Lease Negotiated Without Market Data
Most HOA rooftop leases were negotiated by developers or property managers who accepted the carrier's offer without comparative market research. These rates are almost always well below what's achievable.
Board Turnover Perpetuates Inaction
New board members inherit the old lease. Without knowing the current market rate, there's no urgent reason to act. Meanwhile, the gap between what you earn and what you could earn grows.
Property Managers Don't Specialize in Tower Leases
Your property management company handles dozens of tasks โ tower lease negotiation is not their specialty. Most property managers don't have access to current rooftop lease rate data and don't have the leverage or expertise to negotiate effectively.
Carrier Maintenance and Access Issues
Rooftop leases often create ongoing issues around access hours, equipment expansion, and liability for damage. These issues are symptoms of poorly drafted original lease terms that we fix at renewal.

"Our HOA received a street-level small cell offer at $175/month. The final lease was $480 with 3% annual escalators and clear removal obligations."
"Our association had been at $1,100 for 9 years. After benchmarking and renewal negotiation, we're at $3,200. The extra income reduced our annual assessment."
