A timber sale is often the culmination of many years of investment in forest management, land taxes, and landowner dreams. Yet few landowners have the knowledge and experience needed to get the highest dollar value for their timber.

Natural Resource Planning Services, Inc. (NRPS) has over 30 years of experience in selling timber in the Southeastern United States for a wide variety of clients. During this time, NRPS has developed real expertise in marketing timber to the best advantage of timber owners. In addition, NRPS has an excellent working relationship with timber buyers, which translates into premium prices for timber owners.

NRPS provides the following services to the timber owner in a typical timber sale:

• Timber cruise and appraisal to determine product volumes and current market values

• Assisting potential buyers in tract reconnaissance

• Advising the landowner of the acceptability of bids for the timber
