Strategic foreclosure is when you have taken the stepsand I used the example earlier. You have purchased a home for $300,000 and you come to realize that your property is worth less than $150,000. So youre facing negative equity for probably over a decade at that amount.To be brutally honest at that point you truly are just renting. Youre not paying down that mortgage. You may be paying down that debt, but you certainly are not affecting the value of the property. And you wont be seeing any equity in that property. So once youve come to that conclusion, if you decide to allow the property to go into foreclosure, you really should be smart about how you use those mortgage funds.

They also recognize that if everyone is on board when it comes to considering the long term implications of their strategic planning, they will be more motivated to participate in it and take advantage of the results.When folks are focused on the future beyond this growing season they find themselves asking the question, what's important about that, when presented with options, opportunities, and tactics for growth. Farm strategic planning is about seeing your options more clearly so you can, as an organization, make choices that benefit the long term objectives and the farm and the family.The strategic planning workbooks, textbooks, and how-to books seem to miss the point when they describe the importance of the strategic planning team by implying that a company must be big enough to have the employees ready to take on yet another task, that of being part of the strategic planning team. That erroneous assumption eliminates about 75% of all the companies in existence.What if you could reach out to the best people possible, individuals with various perspectives whose input...more
