Farm Loans for Every Stage of Your Operation

Our Process

Tell Us About Your Operation

First we'll want to learn about your farm, ranch, goals, financial situation and what type of financing you are looking for.

Complete Your Application

We'll review your financials to make sure your application accurately represents your operation and is ready to be presented to lenders.

We Compare Lending Options

Once your application is ready, we'll present it to our select network of agricultural lending partners and compare loan options to find the best fit for your operation.

It’s Time to Close Your Loan

After you've been approved for the loan, we'll guide you through the closing process and be available to answer questions every step of the way.

Our Story

When you work with Ag Lending Group, you're not just filling out an application and hoping for the best. You're partnering with people who understand agriculture and who are committed to helping you find the right financing for your goals.

Whether you're managing row crops in the Midwest, running cattle in Texas, growing almonds in California, or building a specialty operation in New England, we're here to help.

Because financing should feel like sitting around the kitchen table—not sitting across the desk from someone who doesn't understand farming.

Who We Work With

Ag Lending Group helps Washington farmers and growers finance land purchases, refinances, land-backed lines of credit, development projects and hobby acreage. We're a family-run farm financing advisor that works nationwide, and we take your Washington deal to the ag lending partners that understand tree fruit, wheat and irrigated ground.

Washington is the country's top apple state, and the Yakima and Wenatchee valleys also grow cherries, pears, hops and wine grapes. The Palouse and Big Bend raise dryland wheat, and the Columbia Basin irrigates potatoes, hay and row crops. Orchards and vineyards underwrite very differently from wheat ground, and lenders want to see production history block by block.

Water rights are managed by the Washington Department of Ecology, and many irrigated farms get their water through irrigation districts. A water right that goes unused for five years in a row can be relinquished, so lenders look closely at your rights or district shares and how reliably they deliver.

Whether you operate 40 acres or 40,000, we work with Washington apple, cherry and pear orchards, vineyards and hops, dryland wheat farms, potato and row crop growers, dairies, cattle ranches, hobby farms and ag businesses.

A real Washington story: a hobby farm that became a solar deal

A Washington buyer came to us for what started as a hobby farm purchase and turned into a solar deal. We helped them acquire the property and closed them on a 30-year fixed-rate loan.

Hear from some of the farmers we’ve helped:

  • "This lending group does an incredible job securing loan approvals. I have worked with them three times now, and every single time they understand exactly what I need and deliver results."
