Timberland Investment Properties in Louisiana and Texas
United Country | Neeley Forestry Service, Inc. is pleased to offer for sale, by sealed bid, 17 tracts of timberland containing 6,775± acres (per GIS estimation). These tracts range from less than 40 acres to over 750 acres in size.
Elder Properties, LLC owns these offered tracts. Historically managed for timber production, the composition of the stands offers both near- and long-term income opportunities. Recreational and hunting opportunities abound, too, with many tracts containing various timber types, including hardwood bottoms, creek/river frontage, well-drained natural pine areas, and planted pine stands of various ages. All of these timber edges combine to give adequate food, water, and shelter sources to wildlife such as deer, turkey, wild hogs, and potentially ducks.
Location and Nearby Forest Product Markets
The 15 tracts in Louisiana are located in the Allen, Caldwell, Jefferson Davis, Morehouse, Rapides, Union, Vernon, and Winn Parishes, and the 2 tracts in Texas are in Jasper County.
The properties are well situated to take advantage of the existing wood-using markets and facilities slated for construction or expansion.

General Site Characteristics
Ranging from bottomland hardwood to upland pine plantations, the properties offer a variety of soil types and characteristics. These properties provide excellent potential for a mixture of carbon sequestration, timber harvest, and recreational lease revenues.
As shown in Table 1, the property is composed of well-stocked planted pine stands of various ages, mature pine-hardwood stands, young and mature hardwood bottom stands, and cleared/harvested areas ready to be reforested or converted into pasture land.
Table 2 summarizes the total merchantable timber. The estimated timber volumes within the merchantable timber areas are based on a sampling intensity of roughly one point using a 10-factor prism per five acres. This inventory was conducted during the early fall of 2023.
Access
The make-up of the access to the properties varies from direct state and local public roads to historical access across adjacent landowners. Some gates can be encountered.
Recreational Leases
Some of these tracts are being leased for hunting purposes. These leases can be terminated upon the wishes of any new prospective buyer and the clubs will have sixty (60) days to remove any personal items such as stands/blinds, feeders, cameras, etc.
