Whether you’re buying new equipment directly from a manufacturer or searching for used equipment through a local auction or online marketplace, you’re often faced with a wealth of options that can make it overwhelming to know where to start.
The free Equipment Purchase Checklist from FBN Finance is designed to walk you through the process of making a farm equipment purchase, including how to:
Budget: Model your payment against your lowest-revenue year, not your best one.
New vs. Used: New = warranty, faster depreciation. Used = cheaper, more inspection risk.
Red Flags: Check engine hours vs. wear, fluid leaks, tire wear, and maintenance records.
Financing: Loans typically run 3–7 years through dealers, banks, or ag lenders like FBN Finance.
