The Alabama-Florida Panhandle offices specialize in many property types and services within three primary divisions that include: Finance and Accounting, Right of Way / Litigation Support, and Natural Resources. Some of the primary properties routinely handled are retail properties, industrial, multi-family, offices, and special purpose properties. Our Right of Way services include utility systems, airport runways, highway, air force base easements, and railbanking. Natural Resource properties include timberland, pasture, agriculture, poultry, conservation easements, and agri-business. The offices enjoy the challenge of assisting clients in the valuation of unique properties such as underground caves for storage, submerged tidelands, rail corridors, oyster bed leases, barrier islands, courthouses, museums, and colleges.

The Alabama-Florida Panhandle Region has varying physiographic regions that include the foothills of the Appalachian Range in the northeast to the Tennessee River Valley in the northwest. The central portion of the area includes the Piedmont area around Birmingham where coal, iron ore, and marble are found. The East Gulf Coast Plain covers the western and southern portion of the state and includes the pine forests of the northwest to agriculture and wiregrass in the southeast. The Coastal areas of the south include the swampy bay areas of the Alabama-Tensaw River pouring into the Mobile Bay and the “sugar white” sandy beaches of the Gulf Coast in the Florida Panhandle. These very diverse regions provide for varying real estate opportunities.

With offices in Montgomery and Birmingham, our firm has experienced appraisers, five of which have earned the MAI designation, that can help solve your real estate needs.
