About MLM Private Forester, Inc.
MLM Private Forester, Inc. is a forestry consulting firm based in Monticello, Florida. It handles timber sales and forest management plans, and it pairs that work with wildlife management for owners who hunt or want better game habitat. On the timber side, it can estimate how much timber you have and what it is worth, assess the market and time the harvest, and prepare and market the timber sales packages. It develops the sale contract, obtains the necessary permits, and supervises the logging to make sure it follows the contract. Other work includes boundary line location, timber cruising, prescribed burning, site preparation, tree planting and timber health checks. Planting is done mostly in winter, most often after December 1 and before March 15. For timber health, the firm uses aerial and ground surveillance to look for outbreaks. Its foresters are "careful to protect the landowner's investments" and aim to leave the property in good condition for replanting. Wildlife work covers trophy deer management, waterfowl and duck management, turkey management, food plots and hunting lease management. Its credentials include a Georgia Registered Forester, a Florida Certified Burner and a Florida Licensed Commercial Pesticide Applicator. Counties served include Leon, Gadsden, Jefferson and Monroe, among many others. It suits owners who want one firm to handle a timber sale and the wildlife on the same land.

Can they handle a timber sale?
Selling standing timber properly takes three things. Here's what the state register credits this firm with.
Timber AppraisalAn estimate of what your standing timber is worth in dollars, based on how much there is, its quality, and current prices. When you are selling, settling an estate, dividing property, or need a value for taxes or insurance.What does this mean? → — not listed
works out what your standing timber is worth
Timber Cruise & Volume EstimateA field measurement of your standing trees — their species, sizes, and quality — that adds up to how much wood you actually have. Before you sell, so you go in knowing roughly what is out there rather than taking a buyer's word for it.What does this mean? → — not listed
measures and grades what's actually out there
Timber Sale & Contract AdministrationRunning the sale for you: advertising the timber, taking bids, writing the contract, and overseeing the logging so the agreed terms are met. When you want someone on your side handling the whole sale rather than dealing with buyers and loggers yourself.What does this mean? → — not listed
runs the sale and handles the contract
This firm isn't credited with all three, which doesn't make it a worse forester — plenty specialise in management planning, wildlife or wetlands. It does mean that if your goal is to sell timber, you'd likely need someone else for the part that's missing.
