About National Forest Land Investments

National forest land is not so easy to get. I lived in Michigan and had a land in between the forest. This was really a very tricky position to be in. though I could have tried to make a resort. But my land was not big enough for me to build a resort. Hence there was only one option left with me and that is to sell it to state department of natural resources. However they do not have much money to buy the land. Hence they are always in favor of trade land. They give some land at the outskirt of the forest.

The question arises that why they do this? I would like to say that they might want to increase the forest land for the sake of animals. As far as you are concerned, you will always be ready to sell it because you can do nothing with it. The public line is mixed with private land. This is never good for the wild life and this compels the state department to buy the land. However I will again say that they do not have so much of money and hence you will find out that you are awarded a patch of lands at the outskirts of forest.

I really feel that you are still confused. I would explain by giving some examples. You might have a land in the forest which cost you $60000. However, now the state might want to take it away from you to make the forest look complete. You will however be paid but not in cash. You will be given some property at the outskirt of some city. You might find out that the land which you get in return cost more than $100000. Hence you will end up making a profit of $40000 which is quiet a good amount.

This process is very common when resorts are built. The resort management and the state makes a deal similar to what I have told in the previous paragraph. You will surely find out that land is exchanged between forest authority and those who want to make resort. Hence both the party is in profit.

However you cannot always think of situation when you can exchange a piece of land for the other land which you have in forest area. You should first make sure that the trading is going on in your area or not. If the trading is not going on then you should avoid this business because you will be in loss.
Forest is meant for wildlife. However they also give a very pleasant environment. You will thus find ample reasons to build resorts inside the forest. However you can have some property in the forest and you can always do the land trading as I have explained you. You will definitely be in profit.
