FAQs about Halderman Services

The market determines the rent for any given farm. Therefore the best way to determine a fair rent is to do a competitive bid process on the lease terms you seek OR find out rents in the surrounding area and use them to compare to your farm and make your own analysis. Halderman Farm Management can execute both of these strategies on your behalf. This makes leasing your farm very simple. Turn over the management of your farm to us and we will make sure you maximize your current farm income opportunity and enhance the value of your farm over time.

This process can be extensive if you are unfamiliar with the area around your farm. Start by driving the roads near your farm, learn the neighbors, see who is interested, talk to the county extension agent and local ag bankers for references. Work with the local ag vendors to see who are likely prospects. Go through a typical interview process and then once you’ve chosen some likely candidates begin negotiating. The alternative is to hire Halderman to do all of this for you! In many locations this work is already complete and known and therefore we are very efficient in this process and can deliver a few viable tenant prospects to you within a couple of weeks.

Our recommendation is that you enter the sale process with an open mind. If asked, Halderman will make a recommendation as to which type of sale is best for your farm. This recommendation is based on the method we think can best achieve your goals and the property itself. Some farms naturally lend themselves to one type of marketing system. For example a bare 80 acres in a location that typically has a lot of competition is likely a good auction candidate. In contrast, a highly improved swine operation is probably better sold as a going concern via private treaty.

This is a question only you can answer. Halderman Companies can help you determine what you might expect in terms of sale price and can describe the current marketplace vs the historical trends. We can also help you think about tax scenarios and family estate planning issues and put you in contact with attorneys or accountants, if needed. Once you have the information you can make a more informed decision on the timing of a sale.

Prior to selling Halderman can assist you in determining a sale price range and even complete an appraisal, if necessary. Using this information we will assist you in determining an asking price in a private sale scenario and a release price for an auction sale. Of course the fair price is determined ultimately by the market where a willing seller and a willing buyer agree on a price and terms. This can be achieved via a well marketed auction where there are a number of bidders in attendance and active bidding. It can also be achieved via private sale marketing and subsequent negotiations.

As a farmland owner you own an asset of significant value. If you own just 200 acres that property could easily be worth more than $1 MM. What other investment of that size do you have that does not have a professional manager, watching it on a regular basis? Halderman Farm Management understands current lease terms and rates. We know the current technology available in agriculture. We make it our business to know the current USDA Farm Bill and how it can impact and benefit your farm. Our business is agriculture and specifically we know farmland ownership issues. We become your fiduciary and manage your farm like it is our own! We learn your goals and objectives and work to implement what you want to happen on your farm. The thousands of dollars you have in a mutual fund, or individual company is being managed by someone. Shouldn’t your farmland investment also be professionally managed?

“Thank you very much for the two appraisals you just completed for my father’s estate and for my own farm. I know in your part of the state it may be normal to provide such professional, prompt, thorough service, but for me and in my experience to receive such service is a rare treat.”

In a nutshell, she was great to work with! We initially discussed my family’s needs for an appraisal over the phone. Emily clearly communicated our options and quickly understood our needs for a short-form appraisal with significant cost savings. Another appraisal company we talked to only gave us the option of a full appraisal along with a very high price.

She asked good questions, inspected the property and then simply did her job! The appraisal report was very professional and just what we were looking for. I would highly recommend Emily for appraisal work.
