From large equestrian properties to small horse farms for sale, here are a few questions you need to ask
When searching for an equestrian property, it’s not long before buyers realize that purchasing an equestrian property as a business venture or a small horse farm is a lot different from buying a single-family home. You need a seasoned professional — one with hands-on equestrian experience — to show you all the horse properties in Western NC and help you make the right decisions for your equestrian goals.
- How much acreage do you realistically need for the number of horses you plan to house?
- What type of barn is suited for your equine needs?
- Do you require an arena and if so, what kind?
- Does your horse farm’s address allow you to join the trail system?
- Does the horse farm come with conservation easements?
All of these considerations and more come into play when choosing the perfect equestrian property or horse farm.
