Horse and Specialty Properties
Assessing Equestrian Land is a Specialty
The same theories and techniques used in a standard valuation apply to appraising equestrian properties. Horses bring in additional layers of complexity. Buyers and Sellers in this space care mostly about the number of horses that can be kept legally.
Finding comparable property values for horse properties requires additional insights and research, as no two horse properties are identical. It is not the same as pricing a tract home.
Some of the extraordinary factors to consider include:
- Local zoning laws and building ordinances regarding livestock and improvements
- The number of horses allowed
- Small variations in lot size
- Agreeable neighbors and other horse properties
- Proximity to parks, horse trails, and distance from major traffic
- Potential for permitted improvements
The intricacies of an equestrian land appraisal come together to find the value of these specialty properties.
