Forestpark Work
Forestpark researched existing legal tax lot status and land use regulations to explore potential land uses compatible with timberland management as well as large lot community configurations. Existing land patents were researched with assistance from a local title company, and county land planners were consulted with to determine feasibility of reconfiguring land patents. The goal was to determine if a reconfiguration would help market the property as a single block or as separate parts to adjoining owners or other investors. Forestpark established a marketing plan including a wildlife assessment, signage, a website (www.moffettcreek.com), and broker program intended to provide selling agents with resources and higher commission rate to generate higher interest.

Current Status
The property has been on the market priced at $480/ac ($7.5MM) with positive response, but no serious offers to date.
