Expert guidance for buyers and sellers of equestrian and acreage properties throughout Delaware County and Central Ohio
Kelly Ludwig is a lifelong equestrian and Findlay University equestrian program graduate. David Ludwig brings decades of land and commercial real estate expertise. Together they evaluate horse properties the way serious buyers and sellers need them evaluated — drainage, turnout, barn layout, footing, zoning, and long-term utility. Not just what a property looks like, but how it actually works.
Equestrian real estate moves differently than a standard transaction. The variables are more complex, the buyer pool more specific, and the details that determine value aren't always visible in listing photos. Getting it right requires someone who understands both the land and the lifestyle.
That depth of knowledge changes what's possible for our buyers and sellers.
Acreage and equestrian value does not come from comps alone. We price based on land function, improvements, zoning and use, and what serious buyers are actually paying for. The goal is straightforward: position your property correctly from day one and protect its true value.
Horse properties sell when buyers can understand how the land and facilities work. We combine strong presentation with marketing that highlights layout, barns, arena and space potential, access, and lifestyle — and we can keep things discreet when privacy matters.
We negotiate with your terms and timing in mind, then manage the details that tend to slow down acreage transactions — inspections, well and septic items, appraisals, and repair requests. You will always know what is happening and what comes next.
Before we ever tour, we talk through what the right fit truly means for you — number of horses, riding goals, turnout needs, barn requirements, and how you want the property to function day-to-day. Then we narrow the search to properties that match those realities, not just the listing photos.
Equestrian properties are not evaluated like a typical purchase. We pay attention to layout, drainage, access, fencing, footing potential, barn workflow, and the details that affect usability and long-term upkeep. We will help you see what is solid, what is cosmetic, and what you may want to budget for — so you can move forward with clear eyes.
Once you have found the right property, we build a clean strategy around your price, terms, and timeline. From inspections through closing, we keep communication steady and handle details early — so the process feels calm, organized, and predictable.
Equestrian inventory can move quickly and often requires more nuance than a standard search. Create an account to access the full feed, save your criteria, and receive alerts when the right property hits the market.
