🚜 What I Wish Farmers Knew About Finance – Episode 5

Having the right team around you can make or break your next property purchase.

In this final episode of my What I Wish Farmers Knew About Finance – Farmers Edition series, I’m talking about one of the biggest reasons people use a finance broker — and why having the right people in your corner can make such a difference when you’re looking to buy your next farm or property.

From understanding your numbers, to knowing which lenders are the right fit, to structuring the deal properly — the right team can help you make better decisions and avoid costly mistakes.

🎥 Watch Episode 5 to find out my top reasons for using a broker.

If you’re a farmer thinking about your next property purchase, this one is for you!

DAY 4 OF 5 — 5 THINGS I WISH EVERY FARMER KNEW ABOUT FINANCE 🌾

Just because you’ve banked with the same bank for 25 years, doesn’t mean they’re the right bank for your next 25.
In this video, I’m talking about something I see regularly with farmers and agribusiness clients — staying with a bank simply because of the history and relationship.

Your circumstances change. Your business grows. Your debt increases. Your assets change. And importantly, a bank’s appetite for your particular business can change too.
The bank that was perfect when you had $3 million of debt might not be the right fit when you have $15 million.

That doesn’t necessarily mean you need to change banks. But it does mean you should understand what your options are.

A good finance strategy isn’t about being loyal to one bank or chasing the lowest interest rate.

It’s about making sure your banking relationship is still working for where your business is going — not just where it has been.

What I Wish Farmers Knew About Finance 🚜💰

What if I told you my #1 tip for getting a better interest rate may not be what you think?

It’s not always about negotiating harder with your bank. Sometimes, it starts with knowing exactly what your security is worth.

In Episode 3 of my 5-part series, I’m talking about property valuations and why they can play a huge role in the interest rate margin you’re paying.

If your properties have increased in value since the bank last valued them, your overall lending position may have improved significantly. That change in your security position can potentially help you negotiate a better margin.

👉 If you haven’t had your properties revalued for a while, this is something you should be talking to your broker about.

It could be worth more than you think… literally. 😉

🎥 Watch Episode 3 and let me know — when was the last time your properties were valued?

DAY 2 | What I Wish Farmers Knew About Finance 🚜💰

Your bank’s margin isn’t the same thing as your profit margin.
And understanding the difference can save you a lot of money.

In today’s video, I’m talking about:
👉 What your bank margin actually means
👉 Why your margin matters
👉 How your financial position and security can influence the margin
👉 Why the lowest margin doesn’t always mean the cheapest loan
👉 And why you should be looking at your all-up interest rate and total cost of finance, not just the margin the bank quotes you.

For farmers, a small change in your rate can have a BIG impact when you’re carrying several million dollars of debt.
Sometimes spending money to update your valuation or restructure your debt can save you significantly more in interest over the long term.

Don’t just ask your bank, “What’s my margin?”
Ask: “What is my all-up cost of finance, and can you do better?”

That’s what I wish more farmers knew about finance.

Tomorrow, I’ll share my #1 tip for getting a lower client margin. 👀

You might be surprised by what it is…

DAY 1 | 5 Things I Wish Every Farmer Knew About Finance 🚜

Equipment finance is easy to get.

But have you ever stopped to think about what all those repayments are doing to your ability to buy your next property?

Earlier this year, we worked with clients who had around $500,000 a year in equipment finance repayments.
When they decided they wanted to purchase another broadacre cropping property, those repayments were reducing their borrowing capacity by approximately $7.5 million. 😳

The issue wasn’t their equity or the strength of their business — it was the sheer size of the annual debt commitments.
In their situation, we were able to restructure and consolidate a number of their equipment loans over a longer term, significantly reducing the annual repayments and improving their borrowing capacity.

The lesson?

If you’re thinking about buying the neighbour’s property, don’t just look at how much equity you have.

Look at your debt structure and annual repayments too.
Your equipment finance could be the biggest handbrake on your next property purchase.

This isn’t the right strategy for everyone, but it’s worth understanding your options before you find the farm you want to buy.

🎥 Watch Day 1 to hear how we helped our clients restructure their debt and get back in the game.

🎉 87% COMPLIANCE — AND WE’RE PRETTY PROUD OF THIS ONE!

Susan has absolutely smashed our recent industry compliance audit, achieving an incredible 87% compliance rate. 🙌

This was our first audit in nearly two years, so yes… we were nervous! 😅

But we really shouldn’t have been.

The industry average is 75%, and our team achieved 87% — we just refuse to be average 🙄.

Our clients aren’t always straightforward. We work with complex financial situations, self-employed clients, business owners, farmers and families whose circumstances require us to really understand the full picture.

That means we don’t just tick boxes. We take the time to understand our clients, document their circumstances properly and make sure we’re doing things the right way.

A huge congratulations to Susan and the whole team. 👏

This result is a great reminder that doing the work properly, consistently, really matters.

Proud of our people. Proud of our processes. And very proud of this result. ❤️

Sometimes the biggest obstacle to buying your next property isn’t your financial position—it’s your bank.

This family had banked with the same lender for 27 years and assumed every bank would view their application the same way.

They were wrong.

With only 4 weeks until auction, we secured unconditional approval in just 3 weeks, even though their own bank wouldn’t support the purchase.

While they missed out at auction, they’re now moving to a bank that’s ready to back them when the next opportunity comes along.

The lesson?

Not all banks have the same appetite for rural and commercial lending. A “no” from one bank doesn’t mean it’s a “no” everywhere.

If your bank has made every purchase feel like an uphill battle, it might be time to ask whether they’re still the right banking partner for your future.
