Candid, credible, and reliable collateral valuation information is an essential
part of Farmer Mac's decision to purchase (or commit to purchase) qualified
loans directly from lenders approved as loan Sellers.
Collateral valuation (appraisal and evaluation) reports are used to:
-
Identify the "Value" in the Loan-to-Value ratio,
-
Assess the security property's contribution to the borrower's financial
strength and, in Full-Time Farm property valuations, the borrower’s debt
service capacity, and
-
Identify and understand the security property’s market characteristics and
risk.
Farmer Mac’s Collateral Valuation Standards and Guidelines are contained in its
Collateral Valuation Supplement (CV Supplement) to the Farmer Mac
Seller/Servicer Guide (Guide).
The CV Supplement can be obtained as a download in the CV Downloads section
below.
Also, Sellers may access the CV Supplement by logging into the Seller section
of the Farmer Mac website.
If appraisers or others are unable to download the PDF version available in
this section, a copy of the CV Supplement may be obtained from a Seller or by
calling Melinda Davis at Farmer Mac at 800-879-3276 ext. 606, or by
emailing a request to Farmer Mac either through the "Ask a Question" option
below or directly to melinda_davis@farmermac.com.

Agricultural Facility property appraisals and evaluations.
