Used Inventory

When it comes to managing a farming operation, you’ll need various types of equipment to be successful in your efforts. If you’re just starting out, you might be able to manage different tasks with the bare minimum. However, as you expand your business, your expenses will start adding up. Fortunately, when you buy pre-owned models, you can save a decent amount of money. Navigating the world of used farm equipment can be overwhelming, so we have gathered our top tips to make the process easier. Read on to learn more!
 

When you begin shopping for used farm equipment, you'll want to learn as much as possible about the various options available on the market. Think about the features you’ll need to handle your tasks and then look for pre-owned models that meet the required specifications. Also, consider whether you want any add-ons to better tailor the products to your needs.

One of the benefits of buying used is that previous owners have already reviewed the models. Spend some time reading customer reviews. If there is a consistent issue that people are complaining about, you may want to avoid that product. On the other hand, it’s a good sign if there are several positive reviews.

Once you’ve narrowed your choices, use your research skills to verify the seller’s claims and equipment integrity. Ask the dealer for any pertinent information and documents. Get both the PIN and VIN so you can check the official documentation. If you’re opting to finance your used farm equipment, most financing companies will conduct a background check, so you’ll have that to back you up. However, it’s best to do your own research.
 

Before making a purchase, your final step will be to ensure that the equipment is in good working order. You'll want to do a thorough inspection and test different parts. Everything might look fine, but there could be a problem underneath the surface. Consider hiring a professional as they can catch issues that you may miss. If the machine fits your budget and passes inspection, you may have found your perfect fit!
