Hi All,    The following is an email I wrote to my agents regarding interest rates and how it pertains to Nebraska prices.  Feel free to share if you want. Mike................................................................................................Interesting article below my blog explains higher interest rates from a Nebraska Ag angle...please take time to read as I thought it was some great reading.     Higher interest rates absolutely makes it more difficult to buy and sell in our industry...in all facets...residential, commercial, and agland. I will concentrate on residential and agland today.   This will definitely be an interesting year for real estate.    Please note that current home mortgage rates are in the 6% range and are changing up, or down, daily.

I have had my last minutes of sleep in 2022. When I go to bed next it will be in early 2023.  2022 was very good to me real estate wise.  Either my best or 2nd best ever.December was an incredible month for my real estate.

Both family and close friends added munchkins to the clan.

And...Another One's Gone...Another One's Sold...Another One Bites the Dust!!No one...and I mean no one...thought I could sell this raw pasture for $7500/acre   which was the listing price. (even me)  But I told the owner I thought we could get $7,000 an   acre if we were patient and marketed it to the right   crowd.  And it would need to be a cash buyer!! Many folks laughed at me and told me I was   nuts...nothing new there...and scoffed at what I was   trying to accomplish.  Those folks that own smaller   parcels were hoping I was successful and almost all   buyers were hoping I was way to high.Even a good friend who lives a mile down the road thoughts I was out of my mind!! As we rolled through the winter months, the Sellers   were patient and we landed somewhere between laughing and ... 04/25/2022

Rain is good...too much rain at once is bad...but even an inch or half inch right at harvest is not good for most farmers.   All year they have prayed for rain and begged for rain...and now that we are smack dab in the middle of the Soybean harvest, rain is forecast for the next three days beginning this afternoon!Farmers have been working 18 hour days getting the soybeans out as rain and wind are not their friends right now.  I estimate about 50% of the crop is harvested in the central part of Nebraska.  Of the remaining 50%...about 3/4ths of that is ready to be harvested and the last 1/4th is still too high in moisture content.Optimal moisture content for beans is about 13%. SO why is rain bad?  You mean besides the muddy ground factor?Well...Even though the beans are drying out natur... 09/29/2021
