Research the Market Before Selling Your Timber

Before attempting to sell your timber, it is important to do some research on the market. Knowing what kind of price other sellers have recently been getting for their timber can help you set realistic expectations and a reasonable asking price. Consider what types of trees are in demand and if a particular species may fetch a higher price than others. This research will help you better understand the price you should expect to receive for your timber. These are daily tasks for us at Southeast Forestlands. Let us help you!

Find a Buyer That Offers Fair Payment

Finding a buyer who offers fair payment for your timber is essential when selling timber. Southeast Forestlands already has contacts in place for this. We have already researched and know which companies or organizations specialize in buying and selling timber and which buyers are reputable and trustworthy. 

Prepare Your Timber for Sale

It is essential to ensure your timber is properly prepared for sale. This means ensuring that all paperwork related to the ownership of the land where the trees are harvested is filled out correctly and submitted with the sale agreement. It also provides evidence of any permits required by local or state laws to harvest trees from public lands legally and proof that all applicable taxes have been paid on the transaction. Additionally, it would be wise to have an appraisal done on all trees sold so that both parties in the transaction know precisely how much they are paying or receiving for the material being sold. Let our professionals at Southeast Forestlands take care of all the hard work. Then, you can sit back and reap the rewards. 

Selling your timber can generate substantial income, but only if done correctly. We research market prices before the sale to ensure you receive the most compensation for your product.
