Fixed Rate Plans
The interest rate on these loans will be fixed for the entire term of the note. This term can be as long as 30 years.
Variable Rate Plans
Rates on variable loans are tied to changes in the financial market. Your interest rate is calculated by adding a specific number of percentage points to an index. Prime Rate is the rate most often published in the news and is the base rate quoted by commercial banks as the rate charged their most creditworthy customers.
Agricultural variable rate loans generally will not have an annual or lifetime cap on interest rate changes. Consumer-type loans secured by a dwelling are available with interest rate caps. Variable loans are not subject to prepayment penalties.
Leasing
Leasing is a useful financing alternative that can maximize your cash flow and possibly reduce your taxes in certain situations. Leases are especially useful for equipment. Ask your loan officer to run a lease-loan comparison to see if leasing may be an option for you.
