For a transaction that provides you with a pile of money - equal to many years of lease income - a certain amount of paperwork is unavoidable. But after completing hundreds of conversions, we've streamlined the process to make it very simple for you to receive a substantial lump sum.

First, you'll get direct access to one of Unison's Site Development Officers, who uses your lease and rent check records to begin a professional analysis of your site, and to confirm that it's a proper fit for our portfolio. If it is, we'll provide you with a formal written offer.

If you want more information about the tax dimensions of our lease conversion, we'll provide you with documentation from Ernst & Young which discusses the implications of our transaction. In some cases, you may even be able to defer all taxes indefinitely with a 1031 Like-Kind Exchange - click here for more on that option. We recommend you consult your tax advisor to choose the funding option that makes most sense for you.

If our offer meets with your approval, you'll review and sign a document agreeing on the business terms of the transaction.

Once business terms have been settled, we'll work to finalize the binding legal agreement on your site. Some site owners use an attorney during this process, although many owners confidently complete this process on their own.

Please note that in this stage of the transaction, we'll ask you for copies of the following documents. We use these documents to prove you own and may legally grant an easement to the cell site in question, and to create an accurate drawing of your site:

1. A copy of the executed cell site lease, and amendment(s), if not already provided
2. A copy of the last three months' rent checks (or a copy of a bank statement showing the rent deposits)
3. A copy of the title or deed (proof of ownership) of your property
4. A copy of the tax map for your property
5. The most recent tax bill for your property
6. A copy of a survey of your property, if available

When we receive these items, we order a title search. Typically, we get the results in 2-3 weeks and review the report within three business days. After that, we'll send you hard copies of our final Easement Agreement for review and execution, plus a Non-Disturbance Agreement for your lender, if applicable.

Under perfect circumstances, we can complete the entire process described above in as little as two weeks. But typically our lease conversion takes between 30 and 120 days.

Once the conversion is finalized, you'll receive your lump sum within 24 hours.

Just think: In a few short weeks, you could have a lump sum of money to invest, to pay down debt, or simply to enjoy for a long time to come. A new level of financially security and opportunity awaits you - call us today to get started.
