– Dave B. (November 24, 2021)

Mark is indispensable in both land and timber management. He brings tremendous knowledge and experience to the table, and I greatly appreciate his assistance. I recommend him highly!

Mark Anderson with National Land Realty in Hattiesburg, MS was a pleasure to work with. He is very knowledgeable about the whole land buying and selling process. As a fellow forester, I can assure you that he knows his stuff when it comes to buying or selling a tract of land for growing timber or recreational hunting purposes. Mark helped me through the process to purchase a tract of land that was for sale in a complicated family estate settlement. Mark was able to see the deal through and I was able to close on the property on time. Mark is very professional and trustworthy, you won't be disappointed!
