At American Forest Management, we’ve been helping landowners like you manage, sell, buy, improve, and enjoy millions of acres of land for over 50 years. We remain keenly focused on our vision of making ownership more rewarding by helping people explore the full potential of their land. We are humbled by the over 1,200 clients who entrust us to be advisors and stewards of their land. Over 5.5 million acres of it, in fact. This is a great responsibility and we take it personally, but never for granted. Clients like these have made us the largest land consulting and real estate brokerage firm in the United States. With hundreds of employees in offices across U.S., we’re able to provide our landowners with individualized local services while leveraging the vast technical resources of our national company. But don’t let our size scare you. We treat all landowners, large or small, with the same level of care and respect. Regardless of size, we’re fully invested in your land with you. In our way of thinking, we’re in this together.

Ringnecks only reach 8-14 inches in maturity and sport a black or slate gray body with a yellow, orange, or red underside. These non-venomous snakes can be found all along the East Coast and prefer forested areas.
