Hey Phil... Then we will hold harmless for your question :-)
But seriously, we need more information about the specifics of your cell tower to be able to tell you our opinion, because everything is site-specific. We need to see what Verizon is doing and how your tower ties into the 6 or 7 Verizon cell sites that surround yours. We charge a premium fee for this service to provide wireless landlords with a comprehensive wireless facilities review of their cell site and lease agreement. Md7 gets paid a premium by the carriers (Verizon, T-Mobile, AT&T etc) to reduce their operating expenses and improve lease terms in their favor.
Now, on a lighter note...
Please read our disclaimer page by clicking the footer at the bottom of any of our non-blog pages. By posting on our blog you are already holding us harmless from any dumb or misinformed answers we may give, or from any other intelligent comments other may make here.
Over the years we have answered over 500 questions for readers on both of our websites, and we can honestly tell you that there are no other competitors in our area of expertise who even come close to the amount of information we provide for cell tower landlords. Part of the problem is that some of our distinguished competitors are attorneys, and they are afraid of getting into a lawsuit over something that is construed as "advice". So please use this website at your own risk.
Now that I got that off my chest, please call us if you would like to discuss the specifics of your Verizon cell tower lease proposal from the nice folks at Md7.
