Problem
Agricultural mortgage borrowers typically face slow, opaque financing processes that rely on a single institution setting rates, often requiring in-person visits and committee approvals. This results in 60-day funding timelines and limited ability to refinance when market conditions improve.
Solution
Land Ledger provides a frictionless digital marketplace where landowners list loan requests and capital providers bid competitively in real time. The platform splits financing into senior and junior tranches, with a waterfall structure that fills from multiple bidders at their target yields. Borrowers receive one clean, blended-rate offer that reflects market discovery rather than a rate set by a single institution. The platform handles standard notes, standard assignments, and flexible terms entirely at software speed, eliminating in-person meetings and committee delays. Once a borrower accepts an offer, funding is typically completed within 20 days.
Target Audience
Primary users are agricultural landowners seeking mortgage financing and capital partners—including institutional investors and private lenders—looking to deploy funds into ag mortgage tranches. Broker intermediaries also use the platform to facilitate transactions.
