Farmers who are not able to obtain financing for their agricultural ventures through more conventional methods are often able to secure farm loans for bad credit borrowers through Westrock Capital, via private money mortgages. Private money mortgages are loans secured by real estate made by a private lender/investor instead of a bank, lending institution or government agency. Private money mortgages loans are short-term (generally six months to two years) asset based loans made to the professional real estate investor for the purchase, rehabilitation or equity cash out of real property.
The decision to lend on a private money mortgage is based on the equity and value of the property being put up as collateral, not on the borrower’s credit, making farm loans for bad credit borrowers easier to obtain. The security for the loan is based upon fact that the loan will be for no more than 65%-75% of the appraised value of the income-producing property. Non-income producing property (generally land or vacant commercial property) can expect a loan to value of no more than 55-65%. Interest rates can be expected to be considerably higher than conventional loans, usually 4-6% above prime with interest only monthly payments.
If there is a problem qualifying for a conventional loan, Westrock can help obtain farm loans for bad credit farmers. This is helpful in cases where the borrower and/or the income of the property do not qualify for a traditional mortgage loan. It might be credit trouble from the borrowers past, excessive debt or the property is not producing a sufficient cash flow to covert the proposed. In these cases the private mortgage lender may be the only available source for funds.
While a traditional lender may look to the property, the borrower and his/her credit, a private money mortgage lender is concerned with the appraised value. As security, the property is producing or can produce sufficient income to pay the note and the value of the property leaving the issues of the borrower's credit or income as a less important factor in providing the loan.
