Why Choose Our Company?
We have successfully operated a family owned Consulting Forestry and Rural Real Estate business for over 25 years. We offer outstanding customer service coupled with professional expertise. If we had not met our clients’ needs and made them money, we would not be in business today. Be assured that our services will be available to you and your next generation. We are currently managing and harvesting timber we planted 25 years ago. Call us for a FREE consultation about your property to discuss your forest management and land ownership objectives.
We provide state-of-the-art GPS and GIS mapping services using the latest in technology. Our Trimble hand unit is capable of producing accurate data so we can provide you or your engineer with the location of specimen trees and/or aesthetic buffers for your urban development requirements. This information can be provided in computer format and e-mailed to any chosen location. We have conducted tree inventories for individuals and municipalities.
We offer complete “turn-key” jobs for timber inventory, marketing, harvest inspections, and reforestation. One phone call to our office will provide you with the peace of mind that all aspects of your timber management will be addressed.
We prepare forest management plans, timber tax basis estimates, and timber trespass reports. We can provide timber growth models for future income projections.
