If you’re looking to buy a farm, buy farmland, or you’re selling land to someone else, the Farm Transfer Loan Program might be the perfect fit for you! We created the Farm Transfer Loan Program in 2016 to assist farmers with transferring farmland to family or other qualified buyers. The program benefits both the buyer and the seller and has a staged mortgage payout over five years.

Program features:
