Comment: 15 pages, 15 equations, 9 figuresTwo strategies for boreal forestry with goodwill in estate capitalization are introduced. A strategy focusing on Real Estate (RE) is financially superior to Timber Sales (TS). The feasibility of the RE requires the presence of forest land end users in the real estate market, like insurance companies or investment trusts, and the periodic boundary condition does not apply. Commercial thinnings do not enter the RE strategy in a stand-level discussion. However, they may appear in estates with a variable age structure and enable an extension of stand rotation times.
