Sell your Charlottesville horse farm fast with these 5 important tips.


Thinking of putting your Charlottesville horse farm for sale? Here are some great tips that will help you sell your property fast:

Sell Your Charlottesville Horse Farm Fast With These Great Tips

  1. Good condition

    Deep clean your equestrian property to make it fresh-looking. Add fresh paint where it is needed, including the fences since they could be seen from the road and the driveway. Pay close attention to cleaning the barns, fences, and roofs. Make your Charlottesville VA horse farm look good and fresh from the outside as well as the inside.

  2. Declutter

    Declutter your farm, barn, and entire property both inside and out. Tack up fence boards that are loosened and make sure to keep your horse farm organized and free of unnecessary clutter and personal items.

  3. Maintenance

    Keeping your Charlottesville horse farm looking fresh is critical in attracting buyers and keeping up with the competition. If you have two equestrian properties for sale that are similar, but one is well-maintained and the other one isn’t, the property that is cared for will sell first. If your property is overrun by weeds and has run down fences, the buyer will get the impression that the owners don’t care for their property and that the entire horse farm for sale is probably in need of repairs that would end up costing them more than what they expected.

  4. Hire a realtor with an equine background.

    Don’t just hire a regular residential realtor. Look for a farm real estate agent with a background in horses and selling Charlottesville equestrian properties. Interview more than one agent. Ask about their sales for the previous 2 years. Ask for a market analysis and a proposal of how they plan to market your horse farm for sale.

  5. Pricing.

    One of the most important aspects of selling a horse farm is proper pricing. Pricing your property too high will turn off potential buyers while pricing it too low will make you lose on potential profit. A realtor with experience in selling Charlottesville horse farms will be able to help you determine the best price for your equestrian property through analyzing current market conditions and comparable sales.


These are the 5 most important steps in selling your Charlottesville horse farm. Doing these tips will ensure that your property won’t be sitting long on the market and sell for the best price possible.

These are great tips for horse farm owners, Pam Dent. #4 is very crucial. Since selling a horse farm is quite different from selling a residential home, it is important to hire a realtor who specializes in selling equestrian properties.

Thanks for stopping by Sidney Kutchuk.  The equestrian buyer is often more interested in the equestian facilities than in the home and they need to be in perfect condition.
