Farmland Loans Explained

We offer long-term loans used to finance or refinance farmland, pastureland and other ground used for agricultural purposes.

Real estate loans also can be used for land improvements, such as fencing, grain bins and facilities. We have several options for financing land improvements. Your financial officer will help you determine which loan best meets your needs and goals.

Recreational land for such uses as fishing and hunting, as well as rural homes, are financed through Rural 1^st®.

Primarily, financing may be provided for the following eligible borrower categories:

Full-time Farmer or Rancher – Actively engaged in the management of ag land or ag production and their net farm income is greater than their net non-farm income.
Part-time Farmer or Rancher – Materially participates in the management of ag land or ag production, but has a gross farm income less than their net non-farm income.

You can apply online or in-person. We offer a streamlined process that is quick and easy, and you'll be connected with a financial officer who has a deep understanding of real estate loans.

Land Loans Frequently Asked Questions

On new purchases, down payments of 35% are typical on many land loans. The amount of the down payment is impacted by many factors and is specific to each credit request.

Deposits or earnest money can vary based on seller requirements. In some instances, all or a portion of the down money may be non-refundable. Contact the seller, auctioneer or real estate agent for details.

We have competitive loan fees, including no application fee.* We also offer loans without prepayment penalties after the first year.

Fees associated with real estate often include title work, appraisal, abstracts, filing/recording, flood determination and others. Fees are the responsibility of the buyer unless otherwise outlined or negotiated.

If any of the specifics of your credit application changes, we'll need to re-evaluate the approval to reflect those new details.
