Sterling Consulting, LLC, in Alexander City, is a full-service forestry consulting firm with a special focus on timberland appraisals. Founder Sterling Brothers said Timberland Investment Management Organizations (TIMOs) and Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs), comprise a large chunk of his clientele. But his work for them also benefits private landowner clients. Because of the heavy reporting needs of large organizations, Brothers has a keen sense of the value of trees on a given tract, and he can give clients a broad picture of the financial life cycle of a stand of timber.

I can kind of walk a landowner through the cash flows and increased value over time, he said.

In addition, appraisal work takes him all over the country, and he said his clients can benefit from his exposure to the forestry practices in other parts of the country. With his work for larger corporations, staying on top of innovation is a must, and he can let his clients know about a new genetic line of seedlings with improved growth, for example.
