This week, it's a solo episode, and I'm coming in hot.

I just got back from the REALTORS® Land Institute National Land Conference, NLC26, and one issue lit me up: the European Union Deforestation Regulation, or EUDR. It may be a European rule, but American landowners could still feel it through timber contracts, supply chain requirements, and restrictions buried in private agreements.

If you own land, timber, or even a small family tract with trees on it, you need to pay attention.

Key takeaways to listen for

• How a European regulation can impact U.S. landowners through private contracts
• Reasons even small wooded properties could be classified as "Forests"
• What "No Conversion" clauses mean for your future land use
• Why small landowners may be the most affected by this rule
• Steps you can take to protect your property
