Forest Valuation

Are you buying or selling? In both instances you want to know what it is you are buying or selling and what it is worth. We are registered forest valuers and have 20 years’ experience in forestry sales.

When selling a forest you may need an Information Memorandum so that potential buyers can be well informed. When buying a forest you may need to check if the information provided by the vendor is correct, what the likely future costs and revenues are, and you may need an estimate of the forest market value to assist you in your negotiations with the vendor.

Some common scenarios

  • Forest insurance valuation

  • Purchasing and selling land with forest areas present – Timber values and ETS issues

  • Growth modelling of forest areas to determine future value and optimal time of harvest
