Wisconsin State Unveils New Start Buydown for Farmers
The state announced a $10 million loan buy-down pilot named New Start to refinance FmHA loans at 9.95 percent. Administered by WHEDA, the program targets 10 to 14 year terms for operating loans and 30 to 40 year terms for farm real estate, with eligibility limited to agricultural loans guaranteed by FmHA. The plan, announced by Gov. Tony Earl, aims to save farmers around 5 to 6 thousand dollars annually per borrower, with potential overall state savings over 5 million if all FmHA notes refinance. Beginning this week, loans will be first-come, first-served, and the effort expects 50 to 100 farmers this year as a pilot for possible expansion next year. For information, farmers can call WHEDA at (800)362-2767.
