Pre-Acquisition Services
Our experts prepare limited title certificates and work alongside client-selected survey groups during the pre-acquisition phase. In facilitating positive client/landowner relationships, we deliver:
- Due diligence services: We conduct thorough investigations and verifications of all documents relating to a property or project. The process identifies potential risks, liabilities and opportunities associated with land acquisition for telecom infrastructure.
- Feasibility and routing studies: Our team evaluates the financial, technical and environmental factors associated with a project. We confirm the desired routes are suitable for infrastructure placement before we apply for the necessary legal agreements.
- Abstract and title searches: We investigate the history and legal ownership of a property. The process includes examining public records to identify any encumbrances, such as existing easements, judgments or liens.
- Permitting for right of entry: Our specialists ensure compliance with local regulations. We check to ensure your fiber-optic cable easement will adhere to local zoning laws, building codes and environmental regulations.
Acquisition Services
During the acquisition process, landowner communications are easily accessible to the client and are documented daily. We provide each landowner with initial easement documentation, making all reasonable efforts to meet and communicate with individual landowners, the landowners’ attorneys or designated agents to finalize the acquisition. Upon approval, we meet with landowners, attorneys and agents to complete the telecom site acquisition.
Construction Services
We act as the liaison between the client and landowner to problem-solve, assess damages and assist construction contractors in obtaining their schedule goals. Our construction support services include:
- Damage claim settlement: Our experts handle damage claim settlements if damages are incurred during fiber-optic installation or telecom equipment use. We communicate and negotiate with all parties to determine the appropriate compensation for property damage or diminished property value.
- Condemnation support: If negotiations with a property owner fail, we can provide condemnation support. We assist with court processes to acquire the easement for fiber optics and telecom infrastructures.
- Project management: Our team is equipped to manage the whole process, from site selection and permitting preparation to land acquisition and easement negotiations. We ensure your project is completed according to specifications, on time and within budget.
- Tracking and reporting: We monitor and manage each stage of the land acquisition process within a uniform platform. Access all of your project documentation and receive real-time updates about your application and approval processes.
Project Management Services
From collaboration to completion, our team takes an active role in coordinating internal participants and external stakeholders, functioning as a facilitator for project progression via a hands-on approach. Our project administration team will supervise overall milestone tracking and end-goal deliveries and establish an intimate involvement in the individual project components’ daily operations using multilayer quality control processes.
Managing Rapid Growth in Telecommunications and Fiber-Optic Easement Acquisitions
Managing Rapid Growth in Telecommunications and Fiber-Optic Easement Acquisitions
SelectROW works with telecommunications companies to negotiate access to buildings to place infrastructure. Continued rapid growth in demand for communications capacity, coupled with the advent of fiber-optic communications technology, has led private communications companies to build new fiber-optic networks and extend existing ones.
Government agencies seek to establish communications networks for governmental functions such as Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS). In this context, there is increased incentive for sharing highway right-of-ways in exchange for private telecommunications capacity and expertise to further private corporate and public sector objectives.
