WHAT MAKES US YOUR HORSE PROPERTY SPECIALISTS?

Making a Home with Your Horses

We have carved out a strong niche in Horse Properties. Having owned, competed, ridden and loved horses for most of our lives, and owned our own horse properties, we are well placed to provide special services to clients looking for a home for themselves and their animals.

In addition to all the issues to consider when buying any country property, there are many additional factors to be aware of if you are thinking of making a home with your horses.

Comparables

It’s our job to see as many of the horse properties in the county as possible. That way, whether you’re buying or selling, we will have seen the comparables… those that have sold, and those that haven’t. We’ve probably shown most of them at some point and know what our clients thought of them, as well. In short, it’s our goal to be the most knowledgeable advisors in the region for horse people looking to buy or sell property.

Local Horse Community

We make it a point to be well connected with the local horse community, this allows us insight into what is going on from a regulatory standpoint. We know what the current issues are in the community as they relate to horse properties to keep you informed so you make the right choice when looking to buy and know what might be a challenge when you are selling.
