Start with contacting Farm Credit Services of America they will point you in the right direction also look for a small bank with Ag lending they both can give you guidance but understand the beginning farmer loans are ridiculous in paper work and lending guidelines, I have worked as an agronomist for 8 years and have seen how hard they are to get.

If you don't have a signed contract and you sent money, that’s sketchy and a normal lender generally wouldn’t take any money without a pile of signed paperwork.

He is putting 30% downi have a 3 step plan and would love to hear your opinions on this (my math is generally super conservative): A) Split the houses in half and have (2) 3 bed 1 bath and (2) 2 bed 1 bath units  ----spend about 60k on 2 new kitchens, a couple interior walls, and 2 new meters      - this would flow about $8000-$9000 total, and bump the value to about $1.5mB) Pull plans for 3 additional units or for new 5 units (would have to demo the rear unit) ----spend about $20k on paperwork      - this would bump up the value to about 1.6-1.65m C) Build the new units assuming all 2 bed 1 bath 800s.f. on 2 stories 400k-750k      - Each new unit would flow about $2200, bringing the total to about 14,500 - 16,000, bringing the value up to 2.75m @ 4.5% capGenerally speaking, 2bed 1 bath in that area goes for about $2500+, way undershot for safety purposes What part of my plan would be the best part to sell at? 

Engineers are great, they are pretty cheap and then you can keep the paperwork they give you.

Hey everyone,I'm looking to close my first deal in the Cincinnati area, a lease option deal, and wanted to ensure all of the paperwork from the lessor is legit.
