Wondering what's going on in NW/W metro Tucson with regards to horse properties?  I did a little investigating to compare and ran zip code searches for 3:  85742, 85745, and 85653 to see what was going.

horse ranch: Time for a Change in Your Home Ownership? - 08/02/22 10:42 AM
The last three years has brought about a great deal of flux in our priorities, home choices, values.
Some want a home office, others more space to just enjoy "Home", some want something simple, and others -- a property with possibilities.
I'd like to introduce a new home on the market this week that might fit your growing and changing criteria.
Looking at some basic criteria, here's a list of some key features of the property:
*1991 Square feet, four bedrooms, 2 bathrooms
*Mountain Views from every window except bathroom and 2nd pantry/laundry

horse ranch: The Tucson Desert Speaks to Us - 07/30/22 07:40 AM
The desert speaks to us in quiet ways;
Purple mountains,
Dazzling sunsets, 
A society of cacti where we can 
visit our ancestors if our ears are open to the voice of the Saguaro
 
 
Riotous blooms of color --

Create their own beguiling melody within 
your mind.
There's a danger here, a power, and yet it whispers to the soul; 
Inviting solace,
Contemplation,
and reverence,
Come.
Be.
Tucson.
 
Come, live in Tucson.  All but one of these photos were taken at a coming soon listing, available for viewing August 1, 2022.  It is located at 4405 N Old Ranch Rd - Tucson, AZ 85743-8875

horse ranch: "I'm Just Not Feeling It" - 11/24/20 07:21 AM
I've been working with an out of state buyer for a year - she's hoping to find a horse property, with facilities, as close to her family as possible.  I go to each property of interest and send copious small videos with narration, and then we talk when complete.  It works with her schedule.
Throughout the year her criteria has changed, and I get it.  Some times you don't realize what you need or what's important until you've looked under a few rocks, so to speak.
At first thought, you may think...working for a YEAR...but one must consider our Tucson Area inventory.

horse ranch: Horse Properties In Tucson and Marana - 05/24/20 08:23 AM
I did a quick search this morning, May 24, 2020 of available horse properties and ranches within Tucson "proper".  That is to say, I didn't go beyond the Tucson Mountains out into rural Marana to the West, stayed north of Corono de Tucson and Sahuarita to the south, or didn't go beyond Saddlebrooke to the North.  For this search,  I stayed fairly close to town limits, as most of the folks who've contacted me for a horse property wanted to be within 20 minutes of "amenities".
Here's my results and you can search for horse properties for Sale in Tucson, as well as horse properties for … (1 comments)

I have clients currently looking for a ranch of several acres with actual horse facilities right now and it's been challenging here in Tucson and Marana, AZ. Inventory is not what is once was, and homes are selling quickly.  We're finding multiple, full priced offers on most listings priced right, in good condition.
Tucson has property characteristics in our search criteria that "allow horses" with zoning or a zoning variance, or those with "horse facilities" that may include corrals, a shade, mare hotel, barn, arena, round pens and the like.
Add to that criteria how many acres you are hoping for, the style of … (4 comments)
