In the heart of Cheyenne County, Nebraska, a third-generation row crop farmer faced a critical challenge. With the planting season approaching and input prices on the rise, the need for timely refinancing was more urgent than ever. However, delays and a lack of understanding from their regional bank left them in limbo. Enter Ag Lending Group, a trusted partner in agriculture financing, ready to deliver farm lending solutions with speed and expertise.
The farmer needed to refinance existing debt and secure working capital for the upcoming season. Unfortunately, their previous lender’s shifting terms, prolonged processes, and a lack of ag-specific expertise stalled their progress. Every day spent waiting was a day closer to potential financial strain. Time was running out, and the pressure was mounting.
Ag Lending Group quickly recognized the urgency of the situation and took decisive action within 24 hours. Here’s how we turned the tide:
**Immediate Pre-Approval **: We secured a pre-approval loan from one of our partners, offering a competitive interest rate that matched the farmer’s budget and land value. This not only provided peace of mind but also ensured timely financing for farmers.
Streamlined Appraisal Process: Understanding the unique dynamics of agriculture, we eliminated unnecessary red tape. Our streamlined process did away with cross-collateralization, allowing the farmer to maintain control over their operating line. This flexibility was crucial in aligning repayments with crop income.
Relationship-Based Lending: Our team, led by Madison, worked closely with the farmer, gathering necessary documents and liaising directly with title and appraisal contacts. We prioritized clear communication and transparency, ensuring there were no surprises at closing. If you want to experience this commitment to agriculture financing, reach out to us.
