Tower real estate investment trusts (REITs) own and operate cell towers or communication towers. These towers are critical components of wireless communication infrastructure, providing space for antennas and equipment used by mobile network operators.
Tower REITs typically generate income by leasing space on their towers to wireless carriers, telecommunications companies, and other communication service providers. The demand for tower space has increased with the growth of mobile communications, 5G technology, and the expansion of wireless networks.
Here are two tower REITs you could buy today.
