Construction of the cell tower site can be completed within less than 3 months, from start to finish, requiring a project team of 5 to 7 people to be dispatched to the site. Below is a breakdown of these three primary build cost items, using the example of a tower in the United States, which has a total cost to build range of $200,000 to $300,000:
As shown above, pre-development costs comprise $40,000 to $60,000 per tower – equivalent to 20% of total build costs, while direct materials make-up $50,000 to $75,000 per tower – corresponding to 25% of total build costs, and site construction costs involve $110,000 to $165,000 per tower – equating to 55% of total build costs.
Additionally, in the United States, tenant leases for cell towers include contractual rent escalators, usually fixed at a rate of 3% annually. Cell tower leasing rates can vary significantly depending on a particular site, lease characteristics, and local market conditions.
88% said that under no circumstances would they ever purchase or rent a property with a cell tower or group of antennas on top of, or attached to, the apartment building. -89% said they were generally concerned about the increasing number of cell towers and antennas in their residential neighborhood.
