A landowner with prime land that is advantageous for him and for cell tower companies is the most sought after man. But before he gains that momentous pride of owning a valuable prime piece of land, there is always a lurking nagging doubt in his mind with the question, 'Is my property a prime one for setting up cell towers'?

With the advent of technologies, there has been a spurge of companies vying with one another for the best located property that can serve as a cell tower lease for that company's tower only.
