Transition Planning for Equestrian & Land-Based Properties

By Lori Ross

You’ve built your farm over years—sometimes decades.

Selling it isn’t a typical real estate transaction.

I specialize in helping equestrian property owners across Michigan transitionout of farm ownership with clarity—balancing land value, improvements,timing, preparation, and what comes next.

This Is Not a Standard Property

Horse farms and acreage require a different approach:

Land, barns, and improvements must be evaluated separately
Standard comps often don’t reflect true value
Buyers are specific and understand functionality
Preparation before listing directly impacts outcome

My Approach

Clarity & Planning First

We define your goals, timing, and next steps before going to market.

Preparation & Organization

I assist in getting the property ready—whether that involves organizing,simplifying, or coordinating what needs to be addressed prior to listing.

Farm-Specific Positioning

Land, barns, arenas, and infrastructure are positioned properly—not treatedlike a typical residential listing.

Presentation & Marketing

From photography to how the property is introduced, every detail is handledto ensure it shows correctly to the right buyers.

Guided Transition

Selling a farm is often part of a larger life change. I help manage theprocess from preparation through closing.

Who I Work With

Long-time horse property owners
Boarding, training, and private farm owners
Acreage and land-based property sellers
Owners preparing for retirement, relocation, or downsizing

This Isn’t Just a Sale—It’s a Transition

My role is to help you move through that transition with structure, clarity,and the right strategy for your property.
