Investing in Timber

[jschwarzbart]

Belmontx, I think you are correct in stating that the posts here are cutting off new investments. According to the email TATF send out last fall, the discounted offering of older trees was originally supposed to closed on Jan 1, 2010, but is still available today, more than 5 months later. That may be due in part to the recession, but I'm sure the news that trees aren't being thinned - and that tree owners are not getting reports - is the major reason. People are always looking for good investments. Obviously, the unfavorable opinion of the company expressed by many must also be scaring away potential investors.
