Rent reviews for telecommunications sites

Many landowners have agreed the lease for their telecommunications site.  The agreement is put in a drawer, but they forget that a rent review is normally due every three or five years, warns a leading firm of Chartered Surveyors with specialists working in this field.

Mark Newton from the Fisher German Telecoms Division recommends that you should check the date when the next rent review is due, and Fisher German can then advise you on the best way of handling it.  If you are due an increase in accordance with the Retail Price Index, then they can calculate the correct figure and organise the signing of the paperwork.

If you have the opportunity for an open market rent review, then Fisher German has one of the largest databases of rural telecommunications sites in the country, which has rent levels for over 3,000 sites.  They can then use this comparable information to get you the best deal.
