How it Works
1. Farm Selection & Entity Creation
We select less than 1% of the parcels we review. Each farm and
its legal title are placed into a unique entity (usually an LLC).
2. Investment
You purchase shares in the entity that owns a farm. This
can be done in just minutes online.
3. Farm Management
AcreTrader Management will handle all aspects of administration
and property management - from insurance and accounting to working
with local farmers and improving soil sustainability.
4. Distributions
AcreTrader will disburse excess annual income. We would expect
an unlevered yield of 3% - 5% for lower risk properties. Note
that this cash yield is in addition to expected annual value
appreciation.
5. Sell Your Shares
Should you wish to sell some or all of your shares, you may be
able to do so on the AcreTrader marketplace. However, you should plan to hold ownership until the terminal date (typically
3-5 years, though some yield-focused properties may have hold times
of 5-10 years ).
