Re: ideas for selling a horse farm?

In my area there are realtors who specialize in equestrian properties. They are sought out by people looking for that type of property. Perhaps you could find someone similar near you?

Re: 5 acre property layout and poop

Thank for all the great ideas! Keep them coming! I like the idea of the "poop track" and that may fit into our property layout.

Our inspection is this afternoon. Buying and selling homes is so stressful! I'll be glad when everything is signed and done!
