Your telecom closets should pay rent.
Carriers run fiber through your building every day. They use your risers, your power, and your closets. Most owners collect nothing for it. We put every carrier under a right of entry agreement and turn that space into monthly income. Zero cost to you.
For owners and property managers of multi-tenant office, medical office, and mixed use buildings.
Who's in your riser right now?
Be honest. Most owners can't answer that. Here's what we find on almost every walk.
Carriers with no paper
Equipment went in years ago. Nobody signed a license. So the carrier pays you nothing, and you carry the liability.
Old deals nobody reads
The agreement exists. It lapsed, or it was priced a decade ago. Either way, money walks out the door every month.
Techs come and go
Unscheduled visits. Borrowed keys. No log of who touched what. Your engineers lose hours escorting people for free.
Four steps. You sign once.
We do the work. You approve the agreement and watch a new line show up on your income statement.
Audit
We walk every closet, from the MPOE to the top floor. Every carrier, every cable, every expired contract gets logged.
Paper
We put each carrier under a right of entry license at market rates. You review and sign. We handle the negotiation.
Collect
License fees and access fees get billed to the carriers, not you. Revenue arrives monthly with a clean statement.
Manage
We schedule and escort every visit, keep the closet records current, and onboard new carriers as tenants ask for them.
New income. Less hassle.
Monthly income per closet
Carriers pay for the space and access they already use. We share in it, so we only win when you do.
$0 out of pocket
No setup fee. No equipment to buy. No new staff. The carriers fund the program.
Every visit on the record
Scheduled access, escorted techs, and a log your insurance carrier will like.
Higher NOI
Steady telecom income adds to net operating income. That shows up at refi and at sale.
Your tenants need tech. We take that call.
Once we manage the riser, we know your building better than anyone. So when a tenant needs internet, phones, or IT help, they call us. Not your property manager.

Is this your building?
Great fit
- Multi-tenant office, medical office, or mixed use
- Two or more carriers in the building (or tenants asking for them)
- Portfolios from 1 to 100 buildings
- Recent acquisition, refinance, or new property manager
- No riser management company under contract today
Probably not a fit
- Single-tenant buildings
- Residential, hospitality, industrial, or retail
- Hospital, university, or government campuses
- Buildings already under a national riser contract
What owners ask first
Does this cost me anything?
No. There's no setup fee and nothing to buy. Carriers pay the license and access fees. We earn a share of that revenue, so our pay depends on yours.
We already have some carrier agreements. Does that matter?
Not at all. We review what you have. Current, fair agreements stay in place. Expired or below market ones get renewed on better terms. Carriers with no agreement get papered.
Will this disrupt my tenants?
No. The audit is a walk through the closets, usually done in a few hours. Carrier service is never interrupted. If anything, tenants get faster, better scheduled service.
How much will my building make?
It depends on the number of closets, the carriers on site, and your market. That's what the free estimate is for. You'll get a building-specific number before you sign anything.
Who handles the carrier negotiations?
We do. You approve the final agreement. We handle the calls, the redlines, and the follow up with each carrier.
