What Our Customers Are Saying

I would like to take this opportunity to express my appreciation for all the billboard related information you have on the website www.OBUniversity.com and for the book you published, "Billboard Lease Negotiations." I found this information very useful after I was contacted by a billboard company about placing a sign on my property.

My initial research began with looking for information on billboard leases that would help protect the landowner. I soon found out not much advice has been written from the landowner's perspective. Then I thought maybe it was best to just contact an attorney to address my questions. I called around to many law offices and realized it was difficult to locate someone that specialized in billboard issues.

When I learned that you had written a book, "Billboard Lease Negotiations," I decided to purchase it. This book has been the best investment I have made in this entire learning process saving me thousands of dollars per year on just one suggested lease clause alone.

So in the end, I took all the information I learned from you and hired an attorney to implement these concepts into the actual lease. What I ended up with was a solid document that was fair and equal, yet protected me as the landowner from several important considerations. The billboard company, who admitted their lease was very one sided, seemed shocked that I uncovered as many loopholes as I did. Without your help, that would not have been possible.

Thanks - Gil

I purchased your book by Frank Rolfe's "Billboard Lease Negotiations." My negotiations with the large Billboard Company took four months but finally came to fruition. The information in the book and the sage advice of Frank Rolfe were integral to our success.

We will receive $750,000.00 over 20 years with a 20% increase when the south face is remodeled. That would then be $900,000.00 over twenty years. In addition we will receive our payments annually in advance. For 2 square feet of space... There was no change in the original contract and we did not make any concessions.

We also negotiated directly with the Senior Vice President of the large Outdoor Company who is responsible for real estate in North America.
