Rooftop cell site leasing that pays the owner more

TCOMM markets your rooftop or land to wireless carriers, negotiates the lease, coordinates the installation and operates the equipment. You keep up to 75% of new MACRO rooftop rent, and your existing leases stay yours.

How rooftop cell site leasing works

Wireless carriers need antenna sites where people live, work and travel. Tall buildings, apartment and condo towers, hotels, hospitals, campuses, churches and open land can all host cellular antennas or small cells, and carriers pay monthly rent for that space. A rooftop marketing partner finds the carriers, negotiates the lease on the owner’s behalf, and manages the work so building staff don’t have to.

TCOMM handles the full process: marketing the site to carriers, negotiating terms, coordinating the installation of antennas and related rooftop equipment, and operating and maintaining that equipment once it’s live.

Why owners choose TCOMM

  • Up to 75% of new MACRO rooftop rent goes to the owner, compared with the 50/50 split typical of large tower companies and 70/30 from mid-size marketers.
  • Your existing rooftop and wireless leases stay with you. TCOMM earns only on new leases it brings in unless you ask it to take over management of current ones.
  • TCOMM funds the marketing and carrier outreach.
  • A performance out lets you exit if the partnership isn’t delivering.
  • Our team brings over 50 years of combined experience in rooftop leasing, tower deals and wireless site acquisition.

How the rent is split

On MACRO sites, where the antenna or equipment footprint exceeds 750 square inches, the owner receives 75% of collected rent and TCOMM receives 25%. Small cell installations of 750 square inches or less are split 50/50. Where a ground or rooftop tower is feasible, the owner’s share of sublease rents steps up from 30% for the first permitted subtenant to 45% from the fourth onward. Final terms are set in each property’s agreement.

Properties we work with

TCOMM works with residential co-ops and condominiums, office buildings, hotels, hospitals and campuses, churches, and farmland or private land across the United States. Taller buildings and properties in dense or fast-growing areas typically draw the strongest carrier interest, and every site is confirmed by carrier demand, a structural and RF review, and local zoning before anything is proposed for your approval.

Rooftop leasing questions

Does it cost anything to have TCOMM market my rooftop?

No. TCOMM funds the marketing and carrier outreach and is paid from its share of the new rent it brings in.

What happens to the cell leases I already have?

They stay with you. You keep managing your current leases and TCOMM receives nothing from them unless you ask it to take one over.

How long is the agreement?

Agreements typically run five years with a three-year performance out, then renew one year at a time unless the owner gives 120 days’ written notice.

Is my building a good fit?

Height, location and carrier coverage needs matter most. Request a free rooftop review and TCOMM will tell you what kind of installation your property could support.
