In 1990, LandVest represented a family owned forest products company in the marketing of 10,600 acres near Bethel, Maine. The eventual buyer was a highly respected institutional investor. LandVest was retained to manage the property under the guidelines of performance laid out by the buyer.
In 1992, LandVest represented the same buyer in their acquisition of an additional 10,800 acres in Parsonsfield and Sebago, Maine. In this process, we conducted the due diligence and valuation plan that would allow the property to compliment the client's current Maine holdings.
Over the course of the investment, LandVest needed to develop a Forest Management Plan for the collection of properties, and oversee its implementation to best meet the long-term investment strategy of the client.
The managers worked with the property for several years to improve the growth rates and value of the forest to meet the client's objectives. |

| In 2000, at the end of the investment's ten-year timeframe, LandVest worked with the client to develop a disposition strategy. LandVest created a series of bid packages to market the property, based on size, location, and market conditions. Ultimately, the properties were sold in a successful marketing campaign, completing the investment process. |
