Multifamily In-Building Cellular Coverage During COVID

I'm an RE investor/broker and a major part of my business is developing, owning, and brokering wireless sites (towers, rooftop locations, etc.)  We have expanded our practice to offer in-building wireless systems that are designed to improve cellular coverage in mid to large sized buildings with coverage issues.  

COVID has certainly changed the work from home situation in the short term and it is very likely that the shift will be permanent for many industries.  With more people working from home, adequate in building cellular coverage is likely going to be a major factor in a tenant's decision to lease a unit.  

Question for the larger multifamily owners.....  With more of your tenants working from home have you been fielding calls or trying to solve tenant complaints regarding cellular coverage?  Is anyone out there concerned with cellular coverage factoring into vacancy?
