Rural Property Loans

A Loan Officer’s Guide to Rural Financing

When borrowers make a rural move, loan officers often run up against a bank bias: better choices go to homebuyers instead of land purchasers.

United Ag Lending specializes in rural property loans. We provide recreational land loans, rural property loans, rural commercial loans, and more, finding solutions that make heroes out of loan officers, and lifelong clients out of borrowers.

Contact us to understand how our non-bank financing helps your clients, and partner with us to enhance your services—and your revenue.

Read on for a quick guide on defeating the bank bias.

Going Beyond the Average Lender

Banks love mortgages with guaranteed asset value. When buying land, borrowers care more about dreams and goals, which don’t translate well to something banks can quantify.

When a loan officer approaches United Ag Lending, we look at their plans and the value in that.

Many rural property loans create:

  • An equestrian farm
  • A hobby farm
  • A new vineyard
  • A rural barndominium
  • An escape for recreation or hunting

We look at the full value, including the plan to make it work and the players involved.

Thinking Outside the Bank

United Ag Lending doesn’t require loan officers to force borrowers into standard residential loan boxes. Instead, we curate excellent loan options for:

  • First-generation farmers
  • Young and beginning producers
  • Rural residential transplants
  • Rural property owners in need of refinance
  • Schedule-F borrowers

We only offer rural property loans, which means we’re the go-to specialists for:

  • Regenerative agriculture bridge loans
  • 30% rule loans
  • More loans for raw, unimproved, improved, and commercial rural property

We offer many different programs with versatile payment options, so we can customize your loan to your needs.
