Southern Counties Deer Management

We have seen an explosion of demand for small amenity woodland in recent years, fueled by advantageous tax breaks and a desire to move money out of more volatile investments elsewhere.

We can advise you about running costs, such as insurance against fire and storm damage, plus maintenance and management.  In broad terms these costs tend to amount to about two per cent of the purchase price each year.

As woodland consultants we are able to assist you to maximise the benefits of woodland ownership. We are able to conduct a free survey of your woodland and prepare a detailed management plan identifying objectives and long term management goals. 

Where protecting the woodland from deer is concerned, deer fencing is the most effective option.  We can advise you concerning deer fence specification, height, and mesh size.

We can assist you to cover these costs and profit from your woodland. Annual returns of between three and five per cent tax-free can be expected. Some claim that yields of more than 10 per cent have been achieved.
