Program Overview
Massachusetts Hunting Land Loans
The Berkshires and central Massachusetts hold the state's most workable hunting acreage, with forested tracts valued on timber, access, and proximity to conserved land.
Chapter 61, 61A, and 61B classifications cover much of the state's rural land. Each carries a municipal right of first refusal on conversion, which is reviewed in diligence but does not block a purchase loan.
Pioneer Valley farms mix tillable bottoms with wooded uplands, producing both cash rent and hunting value on the same tract.

Frequently Asked
Massachusetts Hunting Land Loans FAQ
Does Chapter 61 classification affect financing?
It is reviewed because of the municipal right of first refusal and rollback taxes on conversion, but classified land is financed regularly and the reduced tax burden helps carrying costs.
Can I finance a Berkshire tract with a cabin?
Yes. Cabins and camps are financed together with the acreage, with appraised value allocated between improvements and land.
Is timber income counted?
Documented timber sales and management plans are treated as supporting collateral value on forested Massachusetts tracts.
