I HAVE 53 WALNUT TREES. LOGGER WANTS TO GUARANTEE ME A MIN OF $19,000 OR 70% OF WHAT THE LOGS BRING UPON SALE. SHOULD I MAKE HIM PAY THE $19,000 UP FRONT

We have two black walnut trees that have been felled and need to be removed from our property. One is 75 years old and the other is around 50 years old. How do we find a person who might be interested in the wood? One tree is 28 feet long (a 28' bolt) and the other is 28' but divided into a 17' bolt and an 11' bolt.
Thanks for your advice!
