Overview

Farm Land Loan Terms

An agricultural loan finances the purchase, refinancing, or expansion of farmland and farm real estate. Private Capital Investors is a direct lender offering agricultural loans from $1M to $50M with up to 70% LTV and funding in as few as 14 days for borrowers who need more size or speed than USDA or Farm Credit programs allow.

Our agricultural loans are custom-tailored loans specifically to meet the needs of farmers and landowners seeking to acquire cultivable land.

Whether you’re looking to expand your existing farm or establish a new one, our agricultural land loans can provide the necessary financial support for development and cultivation.

Our farming loans can be used to finance the purchase of land, as well as the construction of necessary infrastructure, such as irrigation systems, barns, and other essential equipment.

Loan Types

What kind of agricultural loan do you need?

Most agricultural financing falls into land loans and business loans. At PCI, both are secured by real estate.

Land Purchase & Refinance

Buy farmland, rural acreage or vacant land you plan to farm, or refinance the loan on land you already own.

  • Farmland, orchards, ranch, and rural land
  • Rate-and-term and cash-out refinance
  • Bridge to a longer-term loan

Business & Operating Needs

When a project needs working capital alongside real estate, financing can be structured in one of two forms.

 

  • Line of credit: draw as needed and pay interest on what you use.
  • Term loan: a lump sum repaid on a fixed schedule.

Estate-scale & Lifestyle Farms

A hobby farm is a small operation run mainly for enjoyment or supplemental income rather than as a full-time business.

Most hobby-farm purchases are smaller than our minimum loan. Estate-scale properties that reach it can qualify, and we will say so early if a deal is too small.

Agricultural loans generally fall into two buckets: land loans (to buy or refinance property) and business/operating loans (to fund the farm as an ongoing operation).  

Agriculture business loans 

Use these to fund the operation itself — equipment, livestock, seed/feed/fertilizer, irrigation and barns, working capital, or expansion costs.  

Agriculture financing requirements 

Expect to share property details and how you’ll use the funds, plus documentation that supports repayment. Many lenders look at your credit score and your experience in running farm operations.
