SW Call to Action
A few months back I ran a survey asking what the biggest challenges are for farmers trying to buy ground. After over 250 responses, I’ve sorted them out from the most common to least and put them below.
If you are having these same issues and want to learn how to solve for them, I’m doing a free e-mail training series right now. Just sign up here:
Farm Buying Toolbox – Farm640
(p.s. if you provided your e-mail in the survey, you are already signed up)
Top 10 reasons why young farmers struggle to buy farm ground:
1) I lack the capital needed to fund the purchase. 2) There isn’t any ground available in my area. 3) I cannot make any purchase come out with a positive cash flow. 4) Ground is too expensive. 5) Interest rates are too high. 6) I don’t think I could get approved for financing. 7) Between the older generations of farmers and investors, there is too much competition. 8) I am nervous due to a downturn in agriculture. 9) I haven’t taken any steps to get ready to buy ground. 10) No-one gives me leads to off market deals.
Again, if you are dealing with these challenges and could use help, sign up for this week’s training:
Thanks, and have a great day!
