"IF YOU FAIL TO PLAN, PLAN TO FAIL". The phrase applies to your forestland. Having a plan "in your head" is ok, but better yet, is a written plan. Monroe Timberland Consultants provides you with a comprehensive plan (usually a 10-year plan) of your timberland investment, taking into account YOUR goals.
This usually includes: performing inventory (cruising) and appraisal of timber to determine age classes, species, volume, identify risks, professional recommendations for activities, estimate timber sale revenues & expenses, provide timeline for all activities (timber sales, thinnings, herbicides, burning, reforestation, etc.) Also, a detailed map of timberland property, showing timber types, soils map, boundary lines types, an aerial photograph, and much more.
A written Forest Management Plan will also help qualify your timberland for "Land Use" valuation (deferred taxes). This lowers your Ad Valorum property taxes. Contact us @ 919-676-9807 or email
