Lisa Bricker specializes in Texas equestrian real estate, helping buyers and sellers navigate one of the most active horse property markets in the nation.

Why Texas leads the country in horse properties
With an estimated 748,829 horses, Texas has the largest equine population in the U.S., nearly 57% more than California, the next closest state. That figure comes from the American Horse Council's National Economic Impact Study, cited in a 2024 Texas AgriLife report. The result: a thriving, competitive market for horse property that touches every region of the state — and one that rewards buyers and sellers who work with an agent who truly understands it.
Land dedicated to horse-related uses in Texas spans approximately 1.6 million acres, averaging about 2.2 acres per horse. From small recreational parcels to sprawling working ranches, the variety of horse real estate in Texas is unmatched.
What kind of horse property are you looking for?
About one-third of Texas horses (roughly 252,326) are used for recreation, with trail riding as the most popular equine activity. That demand drives a steady market for horse-friendly acreage with access to trails, open pasture, and quality fencing — and Lisa knows what to look for when evaluating these properties on your behalf.
For buyers focused on breeding, training, or competition, Denton County, north of Fort Worth, is one of the nation's premier equestrian destinations, home to more than 300 large farms and ranches. The region produces Quarter Horses, Thoroughbreds, Paints, Arabians, Appaloosas, and more, and supports disciplines ranging from cutting and reining to dressage and western pleasure. Lisa is deeply familiar with this market and can help you identify the right property for your discipline and goals.
