We're experienced project managers that negotiate class-leading residential telecommunications services under financially favorable terms for property owners!
With new emerging technologies, increased competition and regulatory changes, you have more technology and service choices for your communities. Don’t assume that the proposal options offered by your local cable television or phone company providers are your only options. With new technologies delivering not only streaming Video, but managed WiFi and Internet with speeds of 1Gig+ via GPON, EPON, RFoG, DOCSIS 3.1 and DOCSIS 4.0 on the way, evaluating and selecting the right technology and service provider becomes increasingly important. Make no mistake, your community portfolio is important to service providers and they ALL want to earn or retain your business.
We suggest that you not sign proposed agreements without first evaluating your service and compensation options! We will help you evaluate your service needs and potential options at no cost to you. What’s more, we will also assist you by auditing any current agreements in your portfolio for lost revenue opportunities, and then we’ll work to secure agreements which will capitalize on those opportunities. Providing broadband agreement consulting services nationwide, we have an excellent track record and a solid reputation among our clients.
We negotiate and specialize in Comcast Xfinity® Marketing and Bulk Agreements, Charter Spectrum® Marketing and Bulk Agreements, COX® Communities Marketing and Bulk Agreements, AT&T® Internet Fiber Marketing and Bulk Agreements, Frontier Communications® Marketing and Bulk Agreements, CenturyLink® Lumen Quantum Fiber Marketing and Bulk Agreements, Brightspeed® Marketing and Bulk Agreements, and MIDCO® Marketing and Bulk Agreements, Atlantic Broadband Breezeline™ Marketing and Bulk Agreements, as well as agreements with other major and regional telecommunications providers.

Virtually all multifamily and manufactured home communities need to have some form of telecommunications "access" or "easement" agreement in place, which will give forms of permission to providers to bring their cable, Internet and/or telephone services onto your community's private property. Even in "Mandatory Access States", service providers in many cases prefer to have a signed access agreement with the property owner, which presumably includes an easement and some form of marketing rights.
Working with service providers in your property's geographic area, we’ll focus on negotiating the services, financial and contractual arrangements that best meet the needs of your individual community. Below you will find some of the important issues, objectives and challenges addressed by multifamily owners and manufactured home community owners as they mange their property telecommunications agreement arrangements:
Working with service providers in your property's geographic area, we’ll focus on negotiating the services, financial and contractual arrangements that best meet the needs of your individual community. Below you will find some of the important issues, objectives and challenges addressed by multifamily owners and manufactured home community owners as they mange their property telecommunications agreement arrangements:
Agreements With Service Providers: Do you currently have proposals or plan to request proposals from any telecommunications providers? Don't sign them without checking with us first. Even if your agreements are not due to expire or renew for years to come, you still may have options!
Technology, Pricing & Owner Compensation: Are you interested in learning more about what new services are available or will be available for your communities now and in the near future? We'll help you to evaluate how today’s new technologies can benefit and best fit the needs of your residents. Traditional cable television, IPTV, satellite television, video streaming, 1Gig Internet, etc. These converged services can be a bit confusing to say the least. We will also help you to better understand the debate between Fiber vs. Coax, and the advantages and disadvantages of each product and technology as well. Our goal is to educate and empower you to ultimately make the best service and financial compensation decisions for your community residents and asset management.
Broadband Agreement Specialists, Inc. Negotiates and Facilitates Move-In Ready WiFi Internet Solutions for New and Existing Construction MDU Rental Property Owners. Cox Quick Connect, Comcast Xfinity WiFi Ready, CenturyLink Instant On, Verizon Pre-Installed, AT&T Instant On. Major Cable and Phone Companies are now offering Internet connectivity via WiFi-Ready apartment and townhome communities, where they will preinstall Internet Gateways in the residential units allowing for immediate wireless Internet access. Residents upon move-in can then easily subscribe to and activate their WiFi network connection through a smartphone, tablet or laptop without requiring additional equipment or technician visits to the unit. This simplified and contactless process of activation eliminates the need for an installation, simplifies and enhances the customer experience, and also results in increased Internet penetration which typically provides for a higher revenue-sharing commission payouts to the property owner. Residents can also increase or decrease their Internet speeds as needed remotely, again without an installation visit. It’s another amenity which helps to increase customer satisfaction and works to reduces your lease churn. This is the basis for today's connected communities and smart homes. Please ask us how we may negotiate your upcoming contract to include Move-In Ready WiFi Internet Services for your apartment, townhome or single family rental community.
Private Property Rights and Service Provider Rights to Enter Your Communities: Do you know which telecom service providers have contractual rights to service your multifamily rental properties? OR, are telecom providers currently serving or have the intention to serve your communities without contractual rights? You need to know the status of your property rights, or you may be missing out on tens of thousands of dollars of financial compensation per property. (Private property easement and access rights vary by state and in "Mandatory Access States").
Revenue-Sharing Relationships with Providers: Are you interested in obtaining a percentage or a greater percentage of the gross-revenues collected by your cable, Internet and phone service providers? Are signing bonus “access / door fees” important to you? We'll work to negotiate favorable financial compensation as part of your new service agreements. Our goal is to negotiate the inclusion of upfront door fees payments, on-going compensation commission revenue-sharing ("rev-share") commissions and common area "no-charge" courtesy services TV, Internet and Wi-Fi as part of your negotiated agreements.
Assignment & Assumption of Service Agreements for Acquisition and Disposition Properties: As a property owner, you purchase and sell portfolio properties as opportunities arise. With that said, there are typically service agreements that need to be the assigned and assumed upon property sale. As the new owner, you may want (or be required to) to assume the existing property service agreement(s), so that your property's ownership entity will receive any moving forward on-going revenue-sharing payments included under the existing service agreement(s). As the seller, you will want to (or be required to) have the purchaser assume the service agreement(s), so that your selling entity will no longer be responsible for the obligations under the property service agreement. Each service provider has a different assignment and assumption process, some of which can be quite cumbersome. At Broadband Agreement Specialists, Inc., we'll assist with the processes necessary to facilitate these necessary assignment and assumption arrangements.
Are Your Interested in Obtaining "Added Value" Services as Part of Your Service Agreements?: Clubhouse Cable Service, Gate Cameras, Community Channels, Common Area Wi-Fi. These are services of great interest to today’s connected communities, and we will work with service providers to make them a part of your new or renewal service agreement arrangement.
Do You Have The In-House Expertise to Complete an Informational Review of Service Agreements for Properties Under Purchase Consideration?: There are a great number of documents to review and analyze when your company purchases a new property for your portfolio. A review of any existing service agreements from the seller for the property should be included as part of this process. With the many forms of service agreements from the different service providers, it can sometimes be difficult to know and understand what existing arrangements may encumber the property. At Broadband Agreement Specialists, Inc., we are familiar with the service agreement formats which are in place with property owners today. From a non-legal informational perspective, we will assist and review any existing agreements, and will work in conjunction with your legal counsel, so that you will have a better understanding of agreement requirements for the given property, as well as moving-forward service agreement objectives after purchase closing.
Changes Which Have Increased Your Options: With the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) order banning the use of exclusivity clauses for the provision of video services to multiple dwelling units (MDUs) or other real estate developments, new service options for your communities may now exist that were not permissible prior to the FCC order. This FCC order may have an impact on your current agreements, even if they have not yet expired or are not due to expire in the near future! Local, state and federal regulations are ever-changing, and we're here to help. > FCC 07-189 Announcement Kevin J. Martin Statement
