Who Buys a Mountain



With nearly two weeks until the bid deadline, prospective buyers are gearing up to bid on a portion of the 14,000 acres of land that TimberWest Forest Corporation (http://www.lfc.com)is offering six separate parcels of forest land, most with merchantable timber value, in an accelerated online auction marketing campaign.





"What's so great about our online platform is that potential buyers can bid from all over the world," comments Bill Lange, President of the LFC Group of Companies. "It isn't too late for interested buyers to participate in this auction, even if they cannot physically visit the property, they can perform their due diligence through our website which features thorough and extensive information on the properties, including images, maps, and other detailed documents."



Particularly of interest to many high-profile buyers is the Capes Lake (http://www.LFC.com/686R3). In addition, just northwest of Vancouver, there is a functional industrial waterfront lot in Campbell River (www.LFC.com/686R3 to review more information about the available properties and register to bid in this once-in-a-lifetime online auction event. Until then, as the bid deadline approaches, Vancouver Island citizens will have to continue to wonder, as only time will tell who will own this mountain.
