A real estate agent who sells houses and condos is not the one to call when selling your horse property. It requires someone who understands the needs and concerns of the equestrian buyer. For example, they may be looking for a property that is within a reasonable distance from services but don’t want them visible over the back fence either. An experienced agent specializing in this type of real estate will know if a new housing development is about to be built on the adjacent property. They’ll also be able to answer questions about tax rates, zoning rules and conservation easements.
