With more than two million American horse owners, horse properties can be lucrative market
RISMEDIA, November 3, 2006?As the competition for serious buyers heats up, niche markets can be a way for real estate professionals to keep business activity high as the market cools in some areas.
American horse owners?over two million strong?is an especially specific market, but for agents looking to specialize, horse properties are a lucrative market that shouldn?t be overlooked, says Barbara Greenhill, owner of HorseProperties.net.
?The National Association of Realtors recently reported that use of the Internet to find homes is outpacing the use of newspapers,? said Greenhill. Specialized Web sites that target specific market niches, such as www.HorseProperties.net, are particularly adept at catering to discriminating home buyers who are not well served by print media or more general real estate Web sites.
HorseProperties.net unites horse owners with their dream properties. An advanced search on this national Web site allows prospective buyers to specify how many horses they have, the amount of useable acres they desire and even distance to riding facilities or trails.
?These are just a few of the targeted search categories which ensure that prospective buyers find what they are looking for quickly and easily,? said Greenhill. A similar search using print media would be virtually impossible. Print media is also expensive, difficult to distribute, and highly disposable.?
