Buchanan Forest Management provides complete forest investment management services for timberland owners and new investors across the Southeastern U. S.
Due to its performance over the last several years, timberland - particularly Southeastern U. S. timberland - continues to gain acceptance as an important asset class in portfolios of individuals, companies and institutional investors.
Since the 1930's, when Mr. Richard ("Mr. Buck") Buchanan moved to Alabama to begin sawmilling, Buchanan has managed timberland investments throughout the pine and hardwood forests of the Southeastern United States. Today, we continue to assist investors in the evaluation, acquisition, ongoing management, and sale of timberlands and the products that grow on them.

Investment returns from timberland include timber sales (of course), recreational leases, mineral leases and land value appreciation.
Along with Buchanan Timber & Forestry, LLC, a company which owns land and is fully engaged in the harvesting and merchandising of timber products, Buchanan Forest Management is a vertically integrated organization offering a full range of forest-related services - from seedling to sale, from recreation leases to land sales.
We also provide wildlife consulting services, land and timber appraisal services, aerial photography, real estate brokerage services, and many other land and timber related services.
Timberland is a unique investment. You can't take a walk with your kids across a mutual fund, a money market account or a CD. Throughout our website, you'll see pictures from land that we own and/or manage.
While monetary returns are extremely important to you and to us, this collection of photographs emphasizes the broad natural appeal of this outstanding investment.
Do you want to have 100% of your investment portfolio in timberland? Probably not. But timberland can be a rewarding and interesting component of your investing future.
If you're looking for a partner for your timberland investments in the Southeastern U. S., please, give us a call.
