PR62-Dowd Property Marketing 970-231-2882

Larger Image
Until now, when someone decided to sell a property, they had two options. The first option was to sign with a broker or Realtor. This meant tying up the property with one person for up to 18 months and then paying a large commission if the property sold.
The other option was to put up a sign in the yard and sell the property "for sale by owner." While this option is gaining popularity in the general housing market for homes in towns and cities, putting a sign in the yard of a farm or ranch that is miles from the closest town doesn't work very well either.

PR64-Marl Carter 405-844-8787
Marl Carter, Oklahoma City, Okla., has more than 30 years experience in financing farm and ranch real estate. He serves a large area, approximately eight states, from his Oklahoma City office. The majority of his loans are in the states of Oklahoma, Kansas, Texas, Arkansas and Missouri.
Carter believes a long-term fixed-rate loan is a key ingredient to most successful farming operations. With the high costs of doing business today, an operator should have both a short-term and a long-term lender. Typically, the local bank provides the short-term financing for operating, cattle and equipment but the real estate financing is provided by larger companies that specialize in long-term lending. The local lender, with its lending limits, will be in much better position to meet the operation's short-term financing needs with the real estate debt being financed through a long-term lender.
