About King Forestry, Inc.
King Forestry, Inc. describes itself as a consulting firm providing confidential, strategic and tactical advisory services to both public and private investors in all aspects of forestry management, working on a fee or contract basis and covering every stage from initial evaluation to completion. The pattern it publishes is to analyse a client's timberland holdings, run financial analysis using up-to-date growth and yield studies and current market conditions, build a Forest Management Plan around the owner's objectives, and then carry out the field work itself, with senior managers giving hands-on supervision to in-house or contract operations. It also advises on timberland acquisitions and divestitures and on forest investment analysis, evaluating opportunities to add value both before and after an investment is made. Its published service list runs: forest management; prescribed burning; timber volume and value estimates; wildfire suppression and mitigation; timber sales marketing and administration; natural disaster assessments; BMP consultation and compliance; GIS and GPS mapping; carbon sequestration and credit consultation; and timberland security. A second business line is real estate - assistance with transactions through licensed real estate brokerage and sales associates, together with land and timber appraisals. The firm is emphatic about its independence: it acts as the owner's agent and states that it does not purchase or take possession of timber to harvest and re-sell, so as to avoid conflicts, and it points to its smaller size as part of why it can keep client work strictly confidential. Charles R. King is President. The firm dates its inception to 1996; its page titles separately advertise over 35 years of experience in forestry advisory services, a longer span than the company has existed and one the site never explains, so it most likely describes a career rather than the firm's age - both claims are the firm's own and neither is reconciled here. Its filing with the Florida Forest Service lists service across 24 Florida counties. One caution for readers: every page of the site carries a 2008-2009 copyright, so nothing on it should be taken as necessarily current. (source: kingforestry.com, read 22 September 2026)
Can they handle a timber sale?
Selling standing timber properly takes three things. Here's what the state register credits this firm with.
Timber AppraisalAn estimate of what your standing timber is worth in dollars, based on how much there is, its quality, and current prices. When you are selling, settling an estate, dividing property, or need a value for taxes or insurance.What does this mean? → — not listed
works out what your standing timber is worth
Timber Cruise & Volume EstimateA field measurement of your standing trees — their species, sizes, and quality — that adds up to how much wood you actually have. Before you sell, so you go in knowing roughly what is out there rather than taking a buyer's word for it.What does this mean? → — not listed
measures and grades what's actually out there
Timber Sale & Contract AdministrationRunning the sale for you: advertising the timber, taking bids, writing the contract, and overseeing the logging so the agreed terms are met. When you want someone on your side handling the whole sale rather than dealing with buyers and loggers yourself.What does this mean? → — not listed
runs the sale and handles the contract
This firm isn't credited with all three, which doesn't make it a worse forester — plenty specialise in management planning, wildlife or wetlands. It does mean that if your goal is to sell timber, you'd likely need someone else for the part that's missing.
