John Torbert

John has spent most of his career in the southeast timber industry working as a soil scientist and forest manager, and he also has experience in research, technical services, and land sales. He holds a BS in Forestry and Wildlife from Virginia Tech. This background allows him to help both buyers and sellers understand the potential or limitations of a tract's planted pine based on soils, silviculture, and timber finance.

John enjoys working with buyers looking for smaller timberland tracts that can be developed into a mini-farm property, similar to one he and his wife own in Lee County, Alabama. He also works with buyers and sellers of large timberland tracts, where his expertise in soils and silviculture helps both parties evaluate the property accurately.

John has been a land agent with AFM Real Estate since 2014, giving him over a decade of experience representing buyers and sellers of rural and timberland properties in the region.

John is based in Prattville, Autauga County, Alabama. He serves a broad geographic area that includes numerous counties across Alabama as well as select counties in Georgia, making him well positioned to assist with rural land transactions throughout that region.
