The increase in carrier application activity in the second half of 2024 should create a modest improvement in amendment and new lease billings in 2025 and further improvement in 2026 for the towers, the analyst tells investors in a research note. Barclays anticipates new customer rates will bottom in Q1 for self-storage and that the office companies over-index to class A properties and generally have stronger balance sheets than private peers.
