You are correct. Unfortunately, they hadn't got that all in place. However, what I was referring to was the general ag economy beginning in the early 80's. They had just recently purchased some farmland so there wasn't a lot of equity that needed to be bought out. He basically paid for the little equity they had and then was on the hook for the remaining debt. I was a junior in college so was able to return home quite a bit before I graduated. Older brother quit school and came back also so we made it work-just not quite how it was originally planned.
