Soil development loans
Soil development loans are a type of agriculture loan that can be used to improve the soil and increase crop production.

Soil development loans offer many benefits, such as
- improving sustainability by restoring land
- reducing erosion and
- increasing water retention capacity in the soil
They also help with nutrient management which helps plants become healthier.
In addition, these types of loans may have lower interest rates than other agricultural loans because it is less risky for lenders since the money is being spent on improving the land rather than being spent on plant growth or livestock care.

Construction-to-permanent loan
Do you need a construction loan? The best way to get started is by talking to a lender. They can help you determine if it’s the right option for your project and set up the application process. If you have any questions, they are always available and willing to answer them.
Construction loans allow borrowers to finance both land and building costs with one low interest rate while minimizing equity requirements during the construction phase.
Construction-to-permanent loans offer single monthly payments that include both principal and interest over an extended term of five years or more until the home is sold or refinanced at which time all remaining debt becomes due in full (no balloon).
With a credit-to-permanent loan, you will initially borrow money for construction. This is a short-term credit line that usually comes out in periodic withdrawals throughout the development process.
After the construction is complete, a construction loan is then financed back to the mortgage of the house.
The construction of the construction loan transition becomes a permanent mortgage only after the contractor has finished building a house
The house needs to be assessed to determine whether the value of the house will accommodate mortgage values. In this scenario, two loans rolled into one final loan. This means there are fewer closing costs.
