Farmland Partners- Anybody heard of them? They are based out of NJ
An investment group that buys farmland for the people who are shareholders. They rent it out hoping to make a 4 to 6% return on the money invested.
In April of 2014 they owned 7,500 acres across the U S.
They have purchased 92,500 acres since then. To bring them up to 100,000 acres. Paying as much as 1 mil. for 80 acres.
They just completed purchases of 23,300 acres. Mostly in Colorado.
Here in my area they would struggle to make that 4% return now.
With falling rents and slowly falling land values where do you think these guys are headed?
