Forestar Retains LandVest, Inc. as Strategic Advisor for Georgia Timberland Properties for Sale

Forestar Group Inc. (NYSE: FOR) has retained LandVest, Inc. to explore the sale of its timberland and undeveloped land in Georgia. The lands, totaling approximately 72,000 acres, are located within a 60-mile radius of greater Atlanta.

It is rare to find such high quality timberland, at scale, located in such high growth areas, said Jonathan Burt, LandVests Director of Southern Timberlands in Atlanta, Georgia. There is nothing else out there quite like this. These properties will find a wide cross section of appeal from both the real estate and timberland investment communities.
