Thank you for visiting U.S. Forestry & Wildlife Consulting, LLC!
Since you are visiting our site, you are obviously interested in improving the quality
of hunting on your lease or land that you own, looking for the best land
management practice that will maximize the return on investment (ROI) or just want
to be a good land steward. No matter what the reason, you are on the right track to
reach your goals!
Why Do You Need A Natural Resources Consultant?
The reasons why you need a consultant are almost endless. The main one is that
we usually save or make you more money! Another is that we help you make your
land improvements in a lawful way.  The next is that we have years of training and
experience dealing with the issues you may have never dealt with before.
1. Laws
2. Knowledge
Would you take apart your car if you didn't know how to put it back together? If you
were smart, you wouldn't. Ecosystems are sometimes very sensitive. One
misplaced piece and it could completely collapse. We have extensive training in
applying ecological concepts that allows us to make decisions that will help you
reach your objectives in a quick, efficient and safe manner.
As the years pass, the laws concerning land management change and become
more restrictive. Oftentimes, the average landowner has no idea that he or she has
even broken a law when implementing a management regime. There are laws
protecting wetlands, wildlife and property that are easily broken if you are not aware
of them!

3. Money
On average, when a landowner utilizes a forestry consultant, he or she will receive
approximately 30% more on a timber sale than without a consultant. Compare that
with the modest 7-15% we charge for the administration of the sale, and you will
realize that hiring a consultant is a great investment!  We also know when to apply
herbicides, fertilize, prune...all critical elements of forestry that will maximize your
returns. We can help with obtaining cost-share assistance for various projects and
write management plans; a necessity when applying for cost-sharing. If you wish to
lease your land to hunters or cattlemen, we can provide assistance with that as well!

The next, and probably the most important part, is TAX. Income from timber sales is
taxed differently than 'Ordinary Income'. Timber value is treated as 'Capital'. The
income from timber is treated as 'Capital Gains'. In order to reduce the taxable
amount from a Timber Sale, the 'Basis' (cost) of the timber at the time of
purchase/inheritance must be known. This amount may only be figured up by a
qualified professional such as an EDUCATED and EXPERIENCED FORESTER.
Without this evaluation and estimate, there is no 'Basis' and, thus, the entire
amount of the sale may be subject to taxation.

This is a rough example:

Let's say you have purchased a property for $300,000 and the beginning timber
basis has been calculated to be $75,000. After a period of time, there is a sale of
timber from the land for the amount of $100,000. Since the timber basis at the time
of purchase was found to be $75,000, that may be subtracted from the total amount
of the sale to come up with the taxable amount. The total taxable amount in this
situation would be $25,000. At a tax rate of 28%, the total tax owed would be $7,000.
If the timber basis had not been calculated by a qualified individual, then the total
taxable amount would likely be $100,000. At that same rate of 28%, the total tax
liability would be $28,000. That is a difference of $21,000! Of course, there is a lot
more to this than just assigning dollar values to your timber, but usually only
foresters have the background and education to do this correctly. Do you think
utilizing a forester is worth the investment now? We do.
