Sealed Bid Sale of 17 Louisiana and Texas Timber Tracts Set for Feb. 15

Nearly 7,000 acres of timberland in Louisiana and Texas are scheduled for a sealed bid sale on Feb. 15. Elder Properties, LLC currently owns the land, which has been long-managed for timber production and presents some promising income opportunities.

Broker participation is welcome for this sale which is being handled by Camden, Ark.-based United Country Real Estate | Neeley Forestry Service, and United Country Real Estate | Double Creek Land and Homes out of Atlanta, Texas. Of the 6,759± acres up for sale, 15 timber tracts are located in Louisiana and the remaining two tracts are in Texas.

The tracts – each ranging from fewer than 40 acres to as many as 750 acres – are being offered individually, in combination or in their entirety, depending on bidder preference. The sale will be run under a single-stage, private and sealed bid process, with all bids due by Thursday, Feb. 15, at 10 a.m.

In addition to income potential from timber harvest, these tracts of land offer plenty of recreational and hunting opportunities. Types of timber vary across the tracts, which include a mix of hardwood bottoms, creek/river frontage, well-drained natural pine areas, and planted pine stands of various ages. Whitetail deer, turkey, wild hogs and ducks are among the typical wildlife found within these tracts.

Some of the land is currently being leased to hunting clubs, and these leases may be maintained or terminated depending on the wishes of any prospective buyer.
