My point is those hard assets have to be used for a business, not for price speculation (as far as I know). Your second link says: >Farm Ownership Loans offer up to 100 percent financing and are a valuable resource to help farmers and ranchers purchase or enlarge family farms, improve and expand current operations, increase agricultural productivity, and assist with land tenure to save farmland for future generations. What is "assist with land tenure to save farmland for future generations"? Is that speculating for future price increase? | ||

Your second link says: Banks will let you finance any land if you have a way to pay for it. They'll let you mortgage some plot of land in the middle of nowhere if you have the income to pay for it. A farm is income. A future farm is a business plan. But if you want to speculate on land from the city and work an office job, yeah, they'll give you a loan for that too. > What is "assist with land tenure to save farmland for future generations"? Is that speculating for future price increase? Pretty much yeah. | ||
