Forestry can be a long-term asset for individuals, families, and organisations. Whether the goal is to buy land, sell a forest, secure a long-term timber supply, or reduce your carbon footprint, Green Belt provides the knowledge needed to make informed decisions and get the work done.
We work with investors at every stage. Some are new to forestry, while others already own land or forests and want a better understanding of value and possible returns. Green Belt can assess your assets, explain what to consider, and support you from buying land to managing, harvesting, and replanting.

Forest Sales
Selling a forest starts with presenting the right information to the right buyers.
Green Belt helps forest owners get ready to sell by giving buyers a clear picture of the asset. We can provide a detailed forest inventory, drone footage, timber cashflow projections, access routes, and other practical details buyers need for due diligence. Good information builds confidence in the sale and attracts serious buyers.
Green Belt can recommend the best package for your forestry sale and connect you with the best buyers.
Land Acquisitions
The right forestry project starts with the right land.
Green Belt helps clients find and assess land for forestry and woodland projects throughout Ireland. For over 40 years, our foresters have worked with local landowners, agents, and advisers to spot land with real planting potential. We can review opportunities, visit sites, and guide you through the next steps once your perfect land is found.
Green Belt supports you from the land search all the way to the forestry application.
Forestry & Land Valuations
Making good forestry decisions starts with understanding the value clearly.
Green Belt offers practical forestry and land valuation support for owners, buyers, and investors. We look at the main factors that affect value, like access, crop condition, timber potential, planting suitability, future management needs, and other opportunities such as ecosystem services. You will have all the information you need to help with sales, purchases, insurance, compensation, probate, or investment decisions.
Green Belt brings more than 40 years of forestry experience to every valuation.
Pension Investments
Forestry can help protect your wealth and provide long-term security for your family.
Green Belt helps clients evaluate forestry options that align with their family’s future plans. Forestry is a real asset that can grow in value, provide future timber income, and be part of a succession or inheritance plan. Depending on a number of factors, the annualised growth within a forestry portfolio is a compounding 5% per annum.
Green Belt can help you find the right opportunities and invest in the right long-term forestry.
Timber Supply Contracts
Timber supply contracts can give projects greater certainty over long-term renewable material supply.
Green Belt supports organisations that need steady supplies of timber, round logs, or wood chips for energy, infrastructure, or commercial use. This includes biomass supply for projects like data centres, hotels, farms, offices, housing developments, and industrial sites where renewable energy is part of the plan.
Green Belt can advise you on supply options, yearly volumes, and the type of timber that best fits your project.
