The new Unhinged
We don't broker billboards. We buy them and run them.
“Owners, not middlemen.”
- Brokers list your board.
- Big operators lowball it.
- We buy it.
Unhinged Media is the billboard arm of a real estate operator that has bought, fixed and run properties across eight states for nearly twenty years. We underwrite like owners, close like owners, and stick around after closing.
Operator-owned
We keep the lights on
Permits, power, maintenance, landlord payments and advertiser billing all stay in-house. Your board doesn't sit dark while someone figures it out.
Built-in demand
A local ad book, ready to go
We came up selling out-of-home campaigns across the Baltimore and DC corridor: political, real estate, events, retail. Every board we buy goes straight to work for those advertisers.
What we buy
If it holds an ad, we'll look at it
Lit or dark, leased up or empty, one structure or a full book. Send it over and we'll tell you straight what it's worth to us.
Digital LED boards
Existing digital faces, plus static boards with a permit path to convert. We know the screens and the rotation math.
Any size · any pixel pitch · conversions considered
Wallscapes & rooftops
Painted walls, mesh wraps and rooftop structures on buildings you own or lease out.
Urban sites · building owners welcome
Sign ground leases
Collecting rent from a billboard company on your land? We buy the lease or a permanent easement for a lump sum.
You keep the land · we buy the income
Vacant & under-performing
Blank faces, expiring leases, deferred maintenance, bad lighting. That's where we do our best work.
Distressed and as-is welcome
Legacy permits
Grandfathered and non-conforming structures that could never be permitted today. Rare, and we price them that way.

How it works
From photo to closing
Four steps. You talk to the people writing the check the whole way through.
Send the location
Address or GPS pin, a photo, face size, and whether it's static or digital. That's enough to start.
We underwrite it
Traffic counts, sightlines, permit status, lease term, current advertisers and revenue. We do the homework.
Written offer
A clear price and simple terms in writing. No teaser number that shrinks at the table.
Close & transfer
We handle the permit transfer, lease assignment and advertiser handoff. The landowner keeps getting paid.
No feesNo commissionsNo obligationConfidential
For landowners
Getting a rent check for a billboard on your land?
Turn years of sign rent into one lump sum today. You keep the property. We buy the lease, or a permanent easement under the sign, and take over the relationship with the billboard.
Price my lease- Cash up frontOne payment at closing instead of waiting on monthly or annual checks.
- You keep the landSell, refinance or develop around the sign site on your own terms.
- Less riskNo more worrying about the operator getting sold, cutting rent or walking at renewal.
- Estate friendlyA clean sale is easier to split between heirs than a decades-long income stream.
What we needCopy of the lease, the last 12 months of rent, and a photo of the sign.
For advertisers
Then we light them up
Every board we buy goes to work. Local and regional brands book static and digital faces across our growing network, with the same hands-on service we built selling mobile LED campaigns.

FAQ
Straight answers
Do you buy a single billboard?
Yes. One face on one pole is a deal we'll do. So is a portfolio of a hundred.
What do you need to give me a number?
The address or GPS location, a photo, face size, static or digital, and the permit number if you have it. If it's leased to advertisers, the current rent roll. If it sits on someone else's land, a copy of the ground lease.
My board is vacant or needs work. Still interested?
Very. Empty faces, old lighting and deferred maintenance are where an operator adds value. We buy as-is.
I'm the landowner, not the billboard owner. Can I sell?
Yes. We buy the ground lease or a permanent easement under the sign for a lump sum. You keep the land and the billboard company keeps operating, now paying us.
Do you charge fees or commissions?
No. We're the buyer, not a broker. If you already have a broker, we'll work with them.
What happens to my current advertisers?
Their contracts carry over and their ads stay up. We take over billing and service, and we keep the board running through the transition.
Is this confidential?
Yes. We'll sign an NDA before you share financials, and we don't shop your deal around.
Where do you buy?
Our home base is the Baltimore and Washington DC corridor, and we're actively buying across Maryland, DC, Virginia, Delaware and Pennsylvania. Outside that area? Send it anyway.
