A "Horse Community" or "Equestrian Community" www.HorseCommunities.com is a planned real estate development where people live with their horse. A unique lifestyle. There are wonderful advantages and sometimes disadvantages. There are many things to consider when deciding to move into a community that is focused on horses. Are there sufficient deed restrictions to protect your investment and way of life? Are there sufficient trails? Who owns and maintains the trails? Is there a centralized barn with arenas where all of the horses are kept or are the horses stalled at on the owners property? These are just a few of the issues associated with this lifestyle. These communities are growing in popularity as the availability of riding trails decreases and urban sprawl increases.
The American Horse Council Federation recently commissioned a study on the horse industry. They have concluded that as much as $102 billion dollars are either directly or indirectly contributed to the American economy with over 2 million horse owners throughout the Country. There are horses in every State, even Hawaii (8,037), California (698,345), Texas (978,822) and Florida are the three largest populations for horses.
Central Florida has numerous communities of all sizes and price ranges. If your looking for this wonderful type of life and have any questions please contact me. MailTo:John@JohnHenline.com.
My wife and I are looking to move into some acreage where we can have our horse and dogs with us instead of stabling and would like to rent for a while- therefore we would entertain a lease option if possible but that is not a necessity- we have a horse and dogs and we currently live in a home we own on Lake Fairview, my wife and I are both professionals, my wife runs the fixed annuity division for Regions for the past eight years, she has 111 branches and 150 employees that she is responsible for so she travels the Central Florida area extensively and I have owned a commercial and residential mortgage company for 16 years here in Orlando- we have no children but we love our animals and need room to spread out!! Can you find us something? We need to stay in the general Central Florida area so we can make a commute back into Orlando to work.
Please let me know your thoughts. We are flexible on timing and would love to take care of someone’s estate with the potential to buy if we decide we have found the right place- our current home is valued at $1 mm.
