FAQ

Remote assessments save you time and money by eliminating travel and the need for on-site visits. You’ll get a comprehensive overview of the property, including key factors like terrain, forest composition, water sources, and accessibility, all from the comfort of your home.

Our service is perfect for anyone purchasing land far from home, especially international buyers, such as Europeans investing in properties in the United States or Canada (or the other way around). By offering detailed remote assessments, we help you make informed decisions without the hassle or cost of travel or hiring local agents. That being said, it’s not just for international buyers—it’s ideal for anyone seeking deep insights into a property’s potential, no matter where they are.

We use cutting-edge GIS tools, satellite imagery, and forestry expertise to ensure a highly detailed and reliable analysis. While not a substitute for a legal boundary survey, our assessments provide the critical insights you need to make informed decisions.

For many buyers, our assessment is a valuable first step. It provides comprehensive details, such as forest composition, water sources, and terrain, without the need to travel. However, for legal or structural evaluations, a physical visit may still be necessary.

You’ll receive a detailed PDF report covering forest characteristics, water availability, soil data, wildlife presence, recreational potential, and more—tailored to your property needs. It’s a complete overview, designed to give you confidence before investing.

Unlike real estate agents who may prioritize sales, our focus is on providing an unbiased, professional evaluation of the land’s true potential. Our expertise as forestry engineers ensures that no critical detail is overlooked.

By eliminating travel costs, reducing reliance on real estate agents, and avoiding unnecessary surveys, many of our clients save hundreds—if not thousands—of dollars. We focus on providing value for every dollar you spend.

Our service is ideal for off-grid properties, recreational land, hunting plots, and remote areas that are difficult or costly to access in person.

If you’re investing tens of thousands in a property, knowing its true value and potential is essential. Our professional assessments provide the insights you need to avoid costly mistakes—all for a surprisingly affordable price.
