About Victor Loring McIntyre

This one is not a timber-sale practice. Appraisal, cruising and sale administration are all absent from the register entry. What is listed instead — management plans and mapping, reforestation, stand improvement, logging engineering, Christmas tree management, recreation, urban forestry and stewardship plans — points at growing and tending woodland rather than selling it, across 23 counties covering essentially the whole mountain region, Wilkes and Alleghany west to Cherokee and Clay. It also holds one of the twenty oldest registrations in the state register. A landowner ready to market standing timber should look elsewhere in the directory.

Can they handle a timber sale?

Selling standing timber properly takes three things. Here's what the state register credits this firm with.

Timber Appraisal — not listed

works out what your standing timber is worth

Timber Cruise — not listed

measures and grades what's actually out there

Sale Administration — 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.
