Cellular companies typically pay between 800 to 1000 per month for the
land space or building top mount. But remember they are a nationwide
company with multi BILLIONS of dollars of revenue. You cant expert that
from a small business like a wireless internet company...
Is this a struggling small business? (Probably) If so, then It would NOT
be fair to charge them 800 to 1000 month!
Their offer is fair. Perhaps you can ask 1.00 or even 50 cents per month
per subscriber that uses your site plus your free internet service.

Typically they rent ground space, apply for a tower, etc.
The building is generally prefab, concrete (gravel face). They should
provide their own power.
They pay for engineering analysis on tower and any upgrades.
Don't know what is in the permit from local government. I inserted
"not for commercial
purposes" on my 100 footer. Ends discussion for me, greased the
permitting process though.
I would figure $500-1,000 per month for site rental, commercial site.
You may be in a low
people density situation in which case lower rent my make sense.
I would get cash from them as above in any event You will be married
to them for a long
time, make certain you get what you want, don't let the money get in
the way.
Don't be afraid to ask, all they can say is no.
It's your property, I'll bet they will want 10 year deal which
encumbers the property somewhat
for that period, no doubt with a ten year renewal clause, make certain
it makes sense (for you).
Good Luck, we're all counting on you ...
