Investing in
TIMBERLAND

Aside from the inherent recreational value, there are compelling financial reasons that make timberland tracts a sound investment.

Solid Financial Returns

When compared with treasury bills, U.S. bonds, U.S. small and large cap stocks, foreign large cap stocks, and commercial real estate, timberland returns in the southern U.S. have produced higher cumulative annualized returns over the past 30 years. One of the unique characteristics of this investment is the biological growth of timber – even during downturns in the timber market, trees still grow and become more valuable.

Low Volatility and Correlation with Other Asset Classes

Timberland provides an excellent means of diversification, appreciation and achieving a hedge against inflation. It has a low correlation to other major asset classes such as stocks and bonds and a negative correlation to real estate.
