Why We Founded FarmVestor

The price of farmland presents a huge investment challenge.  Most parcels sell in 160-acre tracts, which will cost in excess of $1,000,000.

Investment by a single investor is often out of reach.

FarmVestor will provide investors access to this type of investment with a low minimum investment of around $20,000.

Management of farmland investments presents a challenge for individual investors.

Unless an investor has a background in real estate or farming, managing farmland is difficult. Our team provides full-service property management functions making an investment in farmland seamless and easy.

Our Story

Financial and agriculture experience

Financial and agriculture experience

FarmVestor was founded in 2021 out of a passion to help both farmers and investors.

For investors, the high cost of farmland plus having a significant cash down payment makes investing in farmland unattainable for most. For farmers, their operation requires significant working capital, and those costs keep increasing.

Farmland is the most expensive asset that farmers need in their business, and the ability to partner with high-quality farmers to maintain or expand their operations while providing investors with access to the farmland asset class seemed like a perfect combination.

Licensed in real estate in Nebraska and Kansas, Travis has spent years honing his skills, including formal training at the World Wide College of Auctioneering.

As FarmVestor continues to embrace new methods, including online and simulcast auctions, Ryan’s adaptability remains invaluable. He believes, “The auction business will keep evolving, and those who adapt in marketing will thrive.”

Andrew Janzen

Consultant

He was raised on a Nebraska farm where he was involved in all aspects of the family farming operation. While accompanying his father to meetings with the banker, accountant, and other advisors, he learned first-hand the importance of these advisors to the success of the farming operation. This ultimately steered him on a slightly different career path.

As a certified public accountant, Andrew has spent the last 25 years as a trusted advisor to the agriculture industry, specializing in areas of financial reporting, tax planning, entity structuring, estate, and gift tax planning, and trust and estate administration.

His experience includes serving as president and shareholder for the Hastings, Nebraska location of a top 100 U.S. public accounting firm, and most recently as the chief financial officer for one of the largest U.S. organic grain producers.

His passion for farming and farmland ownership, expertise in the agricultural industry, and desire to help both farmers and investors led to the founding of FarmVestor.
