The Decomposed Real Estate Method relies on transactions of forest properties with a minimum size of 200 hectares. Thus, this method hinges on the assumption that the price that can be expected to be paid for one million hectares is proportional to the average prices paid for these smaller properties. We argued that this is not an unrealistic assumption since it is supported by recent reports from LRF Konsult and from the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences. We have also identified pension funds and asset managers as potential buyers of large forest holdings. In the USA, seven out of the ten largest owners of forest assets belong to this type of owners.
