Landowner Objective

Final harvest on a mature loblolly stand with site prep and replant to follow; landowner wanted a clean operation that protected streamside management zones.

Sale Highlights

Pay-as-cut structure with scale-ticket audit rights captured heavier-than-expected sawtimber volume and held the buyer accountable on BMPs through close-out.

Lessons Learned

When stocking is uncertain and the landowner wants oversight, pay-as-cut keeps the upside with the landowner and keeps the operation honest.
