Hello there everyone.
Currently farming a 300 acre farm on an aha. Second generation at the moment, with third eligible for succession. (Second generation retiring age now)
We have other land on FBT’s and run a good sized sheep and beef operation, profitable, very forward thinking and as well placed as anyone for the uncertain future. With family to soon increase in size, it’s time to think about securing a future for generations to come and to think about buying a Farm. Currently in Emgland, but a family dream to farm in Scotland...don’t need telling we are mad to think that.
What I really want to know is...If we were to surrender the aha, would there be a value received from the landlords? And how much?
Got a rent review due and would ideally like the landlords to compensate for surrender, sell the farm to us as sitting tenants, or if neither of the above, invest a considerable amount in the farms minimal, and dating livestock housing.
Agents aren’t very helpful and haven’t invested in any of the estate farms for years so they will probably just ask for another tenner per acre and tell us to get on with it.
Many thanks
