Farmland & Real Estate Loans

Overview

Financing the purchase, refinance, or improvement of agricultural land.

About this topic

Buying farmland is usually the largest financing decision an operation makes. These guides cover how agricultural real estate loans work — long terms secured by the land, down payment and equity expectations, appraisals, title, and closing — along with land-specific factors like productivity, mineral rights, and water rights. Down payment and terms vary widely by lender, property, and program, so comparison matters.
