About J. H. Graham, Inc.
J. H. Graham, Inc. is a forestry consulting and rural real estate firm based in Jasper, Alabama. It has worked with private landowners, families, trusts and institutions since 1993, mainly in Northwest Alabama and Walker County. Timber sales are the core of the work. The firm maps and inventories your stand, recommends a harvest plan, and gives you the market value of the timber. It then marks sale boundaries and stream management zones, advertises the sale, runs the bid openings, weighs the offers, and writes the cutting contract. Routine inspections follow the harvest to make sure the contract is kept. Timber appraisals also cover land and timber purchases and sales, and estate planning. For reforestation, the firm arranges site preparation, burning, and planting of pine and hardwood seedlings, with planting contractors and daily quality checks. Hunting leases are handled from start to finish. The office provides the lease, collects the fees, and sends them on to the landowner. All matters with the hunters go through the office. Chip Graham, Joseph H. "Chip" Graham III, founded the firm. He is an Auburn forestry management graduate, an Alabama Registered Forester, a licensed Alabama real estate broker since 1997, and a past president of the Walker County Area Board of REALTORS. The firm manages about 28,000 acres, with more than $50 million in rural land and timber. It suits owners who want their timber sold, replanted, and their land sold or leased, all from one office.
