Buying or selling acreage, ranchland, or equestrian property is nothing like handling a traditional home. These properties involve complex land use issues, water rights, wells, septic systems, zoning rules, fences, easements, livestock suitability, outbuildings, topography, and long-term usability.
Most agents don’t understand these details.
I do — because I’ve lived it, built on it, and negotiated hundreds of land-based transactions across Colorado.
My background in construction, land development, and luxury real estate allows me to guide clients with clarity, accuracy, and confidence in ways that typical agents simply cannot.
Whether you're looking for a mountain ranch in Evergreen, horse-ready land in Morrison, acreage in Golden, or a private estate in Littleton, I bring the hands-on expertise required to protect your investment and maximize your results.
Acreage and equestrian properties rely heavily on their water systems. I understand:
Well depth & productivity
Permitted household vs. livestock use
Septic capacity and condition
Soil composition and drainage
State and county water regulations
Irrigation viability
This expertise helps identify opportunities, avoid costly mistakes, and negotiate from strength.
Colorado’s terrain varies dramatically from flat pastureland to rugged foothills. I help clients evaluate:
Soil stability
Slope & access
Build sites
Fire mitigation
Easements & boundary issues
Outbuilding placement
Road maintenance responsibilities
Because I’ve physically built on acreage myself, I know exactly what matters — and what it costs.
Equestrian properties come with unique needs. I help buyers and sellers understand:
Arena placement and footing
Barn design & ventilation
Tack rooms, wash bays, and hay storage
Fence types and safety
Pasture rotation
Water access for livestock
HOA and zoning restrictions
Whether you're a hobby rider or managing multiple horses, I can evaluate if a property truly fits your lifestyle.
Acreage and ranch buyers are not the same as subdivision buyers — and they require a different marketing approach.
My system includes:
Drone and aerial mapping
Boundary overlays
Land-use diagrams
Well & septic documentation
Lifestyle videography
Targeted advertising to equestrian, land, and luxury buyer groups
This ensures your property stands out and attracts the right buyers.
Land negotiations include variables most agents have never encountered:
Fences
Grazing leases
Easements
Water tests
Well permits
Septic inspections
Soil tests
Land surveys
Outbuilding valuations
Because I deal with these constantly, I know exactly how to structure a contract that protects you and maximizes your leverage.
I represent acreage, ranch, and horse property buyers and sellers throughout:
Evergreen – mountain ranches, luxury acreage, equestrian estates
Morrison – foothill acreage, horse communities, private view properties
Golden – ranchland, custom-home acreage, sprawling horse properties
Littleton / Ken Caryl – equestrian estates, large-lot luxury homes
Arvada – West Arvada acreage, irrigated land, hobby-farm properties
Lakewood – unique acreage pockets, horse-ready properties near the foothills
Conifer / Bailey / Pine – mountain ranchland, open acreage, homestead-style properties
If it has land, horses, views, water, or privacy — I specialize in it.
I know these foothill and mountain communities not just professionally — but personally.
I built my last two homes, giving you real-world insight into what’s possible on the land.
Many ranch and acreage properties also fall into the luxury category.
My marketing system statistically sells properties for 7%–14% more.
I can spot red flags, opportunities, and hidden value instantly.
From land evaluation to closing, I guide you through every detail of this complex purchase or sale.
Whether you're searching for acreage to build your dream home, a horse-ready property, or a mountain ranch with unmatched privacy — or you’re selling and want the highest return — you deserve a specialist who understands land inside and out.
