Tenants

At TIP we seek reasonable, long-term, predictable cash flows – just like our tenants.

There are many ways to work together.

Our deep experience and efficient processes make TIP an attractive, professional counterparty for telecom operators and infrastructure companies alike. We seek long-term, mutually beneficial partnerships with telecom operators and infrastructure companies and are willing to offer long-term predictability, including:

Master lease arrangements.  Both telecom operators and infrastructure companies seek long-term, predictable and reasonably-priced relationships with their landlords.  Property owners benefit from constructive relationships with their tenants as well.  Having operated many thousands of mobile sites, the professionals at TIP serve as a valued intermediary between property owners and tenants:

  • Property owners benefit from large, up-front lump sum payouts and ongoing professional management of their site.
  • Telecom operators and infrastructure companies benefit from a predictable, friendly, responsive, professionally-managed counterparty.

TIP has found that tenants benefit from and appreciate predictable master lease arrangements and rate cards.  We are always prepared to negotiate such an arrangement and to serve as long-term partners to property owners, telecom operators and infrastructure companies alike.

Rather than making telecom lease investments independently, TIP would prefer to do so in close collaboration with telecom operators and infrastructure companies. 

Tenant-sponsored lease pre-payment (or “premium”) programmes.  It has now been proven many thousands of times that property owners world-wide seek large, up-front lump sum payouts against their mobile site rent.  TIP aspires to make as many as a thousand such payouts each year over the next decade, maybe more.  Rather than doing so independently TIP would prefer to do so in close collaboration with telecom operators and infrastructure companies.  This will enable TIP to negotiate and document agreements that benefit both landlords (site owners) and tenants (telecom operators and infrastructure companies).  Our founder has overseen the successful implementation of tenant-sponsored lease premium programmes in the past and we intend to implement even more of them going forward. We explain in the video below.

Tenant-sponsored Lease Premium Programmes

Breaking the impasse. In the UK, reform of the Electronic Communications Code (ECC) was designed to help achieve ubiquitous coverage and greater capacity –particularly as it relates to 5G. Telecom operators have used the Code to achieve (sometimes dramatic) rent reductions, and property owners have pushed back.

We have already seen more court decisions under the 2017 Code than during the entire 30 years the previous Code was in force, and the Tribunal has warned against delays. The government is investigating whether changes might be needed, but the Law Society says that changes to the Code and procedures are not enough.

Ofcom says that the parties should seek agreement, and as we explain in the video below, we at TIP think we can help.

Breaking the Impasse

Site Owners Like Lease Premiums

Large, up-front payouts help achieve mutual agreement, thus speeding up the technology roll-outs envisioned by the UK government.

Strong relationships with landlords and speed to market helps telecom operators and infrastructure companies alike as they enhance their networks in a 5G world.

Pre-paid cell site lease acquisition arrangements.  We have found that giving property owners the option of accepting a (partial) up-front payout (or lease premium) enhances landlord-tenant relationships and accelerates roll-outs of wireless infrastructure.  Strong relationships with landlords and speed to market helps telecom operators and infrastructure companies alike as they enhance their networks in a 5G world.

Ground and Infrastructure sale-leasebacks.  With decades of experience ranging from $1M telecom operator switch sites to property portfolios exceeding $1B in value, our approach to ground and infrastructure sale-leasebacks is highly customized and flexible.  We can meet the needs of telecom operators and infrastructure companies across the Americas, Europe, Australia and Asia quickly and efficiently, from term sheet to closing statement.
