There are many areas around the Pikes Peak region where you can find suitable horse property. A lot of people are opting to buy horse property instead of boarding. They get more time with their horses on a regular basis and they save the high boarding fees each month. When contemplating the purchase of land that can sustain horses in a comfortable and adequate environment, there are several things to investigate:
1. How much land is enough to support the number of animals you have?
2. Does the well permit support the watering of domestic animals?
3. Is the current fencing adequate?

6. Is there evidence of noxious weeds in the area?
7. Is there a reliable vet nearby?
Taking the time to investigate the answers to these questions is imperative. Can you imagine buying a home for you and your horses, only to find out that the current well permit does not allow you to water them?
