How do I sell forest in Vidzeme?+

Before selling, learn the real market value of your forest. Enter the cadastre number into the MezaData calculator — free, no sign-up. Then consider selling through a timber auction: competing buyers often lift the price above a direct buyer's offer.

Why does VMD inventory data matter for selling?+

The VMD inventory (Meža valsts reģistrs) holds precise stand-level data on volume, species and age. Buyers and banks require it. An outdated inventory (older than 20 years) can stall a deal. MezaData reads VMD data directly from data.gov.lv.
