Financing Your Perfect Land Loan

At Rural 1st, we don’t just finance rural projects. We live the rural lifestyle. This means that our expert team of loan officers deeply understands what you want and how to finance the perfect land loan for you. 

 

Land loans

Let us get you Closer to What Matters®.

As the leader in rural lending, we understand what it means to find that piece of land that’s perfect for you. We live out here as well and enjoy the land just as much as you do. From riding ATVs around the woods with your buddies to reeling in that record-breaking smallmouth, we know what gets the blood pumping. And you’ll find working with an experienced lending professional who understands rural property and knows the geographical area can be invaluable in finding land that’s just right. Let’s get a jump start on your rural journey today.

It can be difficult to find fixed-rate financing for bare land. At Rural 1st we offer the security of a fully fixed-rate loan as well as adjustable-rate options to choose from. 

When you own your own bare land, you have the freedom to use it how you want, and Rural 1st has the lending solutions to make it happen. We can help you finance bare land and lots for construction to secure your family's future for generations to come and help them get Closer to What Matters®.
