Hello,
I'm new to the site so I hope I'm posting in the right area!
I live in Missouri, in the middle of a wooded area, which is a total of 10 acres. We have a lot of Oak trees, including White Oak, and some cedar.
I just had a logger come to my door wanting to do a walk around my property. He came back saying he estimates $5000 but it'll be split in half and We'd get $2500 (he said that's estimate only, could end up being more or less). This seems like a large amount of money, and the logger did not mention what trees he is after (my dad feels he's after only white oak) or how many he was interested in cutting.
So I'm hoping you guys who are experienced can help me out. For the amount quoted, can you estimate how many trees he's planning on cutting? Is each tree really worth a large amount or is he planning to clear a large portion of my woods out?
If I agree to this, would there be a bunch of big, loud trucks in my yard for a day? How would it work?
I haven't agreed to anything yet, but will have to decide quickly cause I think he's coming back around again soon, so any information you guys with experience or knowledge can give me would be really helpful!
Thank you so much!!
