Hi,
I own 30 acres of timber land in northern Wisconsin.
I bought it two years ago in hopes of profiting from the cedar, about 80
cord. I haven't tried to sell and I haven't done much research yet.
Except
to know that of course I have to get help from the DNR to make sure the
forest is replanted afterwards.
I have birch, ash and oak also, just not sure what to do.
Is winter the best time to look for a buyer, where do I look, how do I
know
I'm getting a good deal. What can I possibly expect for profits on cedar,
what is white cedar going per cord today?
Lots of questions but I can't find anyone to answer them, at least
truthfully.
I also have a potential buyer of the land, so I may lose a profit if I
sell
it with-out selling the timber. I'd like to make good on my investment.
If no one here can help could you point me in the right direction?
Thank you so much.
