The value of a tower asset is typically based on a multiple of annual net cash flow taking into account the interrelationship among the maturity, growth potential and quality of the facility. Annual Net Cash Flow being defined as gross Income minus Expenses. Expenses typically include insurance, maintenance, real taxes, land lease and utilities.

The multiple paid for the tower assets depends upon the following factors:
1. Zoning - Is the tower in a protective zoning environment or one that prohibits additional towers from being built?
2. Capacity- Is the tower structurally capable of supporting additional tenants and is the ground space area sufficient for multiple users?
3. Competitive Structures- Are there other structures (towers/buildings) of sufficient height nearby that a potential tenant could use?
4. Current Tenant Base- Which tenants are currently using the tower and are they credit worthy?
5. Urban/Suburban/Rural - Are the towers located in high growth areas?
