About MW Forestry & Real Estate
MW Forestry & Real Estate is a forestry consulting and timber buying business out of Wausau, Wisconsin, working the Rhinelander and Wausau area in Central Wisconsin, with work found in Marathon County. They offer timber appraisals and timber sale services, plus forest management, forest inventory, boundary line establishment and maintenance, property mapping, harvest scheduling, wildlife habitat services, and MFL plans. For a sale, they run "an intense timber cruise to identify tree species and volumes by species with an up to date market analysis," then prepare, sell, and contract the harvest laid out in your forest management plan. They say their appraisals aim "to receive the highest possible price for the timber being offered for sale." They've worked with forested properties in Wisconsin for over 15 years. Their real estate focus runs on parcels from 10 acres up to 100,000+ acres, so 10 acres looks to be the floor for that side of the business. This fits a landowner in the Marathon County area who wants one outfit to handle the whole arc of a timber sale, from cruising the stand to lining up the harvest, and who might also want wildlife habitat work or an MFL plan done alongside it.

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.
