Ready to sell? Have the sale run right.

A managed timber sale means the trees get marked, the sale goes out to competitive bids, and a written contract protects you and the woods that stay standing. Tell me about the land, and I’ll give you a straight answer on whether a managed sale fits and what it would involve.

- Timber sale consultation request -

Start with your land.


No cost to talk, no obligation to proceed.

Brandon works for you, never for the mill. A managed sale means marking the trees, writing a prospectus, and putting the timber out to competitive sealed bids from multiple qualified buyers, then a written contract with payment before any cutting starts and oversight through closeout.

When North Carolina State University foresters compared sales, landowners who used a consulting forester averaged about 23% more income per acre and 64% higher price per board foot than those who sold on their own (Cubbage et al., 1996).
