Nashville, Tennessee โ March 8, 2012ย โ Cell Tower Review Discovers Undeclared Use of Land,ย Verizon Pays Significant Recovery: Vertical Consultants is proud to announce both the recovery of underpaid rent for SecureCare Self Storage, Inc. currently ranked as the 13th largest self-storage owner/operator in North America and a related renegotiated lease agreement with Verizon Communications, Inc., (the largest wireless telecom provider in North America and 16thย largest company in the United States).ย This discovery has garnered SecureCare Self Storage an incredibly impressive 198% immediate increase in rents received. SecureCare Self Storage presently leases certain real property to Verizon for the occupancy and use of certain cell tower facilities at its Wilmington, North Carolina property.ย The collection of underpaid rent from Verizon dates back to 2006 and represents a significant recovery for SecureCare Self Storage.
Vertical Consultants was procured by SecureCare Self Storage in 2011 to review and provide counsel regarding its current cell tower and roof-top leases associated with its properties.ย Vertical Consultants efforts to maximize the value of this clients telecom lease assets commenced with a review of both the Verizon lease and tower site located on the clientโs property. Vertical Consultants afore-mentioned review resulted in the discovery of Verizonโs undeclared and unauthorized use of additional space at the property. ย Hugh Odom, President of Vertical Consultants, explains, โwe were not only able to reach an agreement with Verizon that lead to a recovery of unpaid rent but also renegotiated the existing lease, resulting in an immediate 198% increase in rentโ.
Odom, stated โFor the last four-decades the telecom companies continue to rely upon the lack of information a property owner has access to when it enters into a cell tower lease, or any other type of telecom lease, our mission is to level the playing field and make sure property owners at all levels get true and accurate value for the use of their propertyโ.
