LINDSEY VORWITH About

What inspired you to specialize in equestrian real estate?

It happened very organically - I was already selling but it wasn’t until I started working with equestrians that it really became fun for me I realized that there was a need in the market because most agents are not able to articulate or understand the value of equestrian properties

What resources or tools do you utilize to assist clients in their search for equestrian properties?

The biggest tool is collaboration Many equestrian properties don’t even hit the market because sellers face a huge risk of everyone leaving once they get wind of a possible sale A lot of them sell off market and therefore, collaborating with other equestrian agents in your market is key

Can you share any tips for sellers looking to market their equestrian property effectively?

First, who you work with matters It is paramount to select an agent that understands equestrian properties The harsh reality is that an agent that is not well versed in equestrian properties is not going to be able to achieve you the highest net I’ve looked at so many equestrian properties that are poorly represented because the agent just doesn't understand horses Second, your agent must be collaborating with other agents You can have the best marketing material, videos, etc, but if your agent isn’t collaborating with other agents, they are doing you a disservice Collaboration trumps competition

Can you tell us about a memorable success story or unique property you have helped a client find?

One of my most memorable success stories was when I competed against three of the top agents in the area for a big listing Not only did I get the listing but we sold the home in just 2 days for an insane over asking price

What advice do you have for buyers who are considering purchasing an equestrian property for the first time?

Work with an equestrian specialist Your aunt's cousin's uncle isn’t going to cut it (ie everyone knows a realtor) Talk to other farm owners and understand how they are running their business Are they doing dry stalls, what is working for them and what isn’t? Buying an equestrian property is complex You have to understand the zoning then there is permitting, there are a lot of variances and no two properties are going to be the same Every buyer has their own level of risk tolerance and knowing your risk tolerance is key to finding the right property Something else that I think is crucial is understanding what the development possibilities are for the land around your parcel For example, if trail access is important to you, are the trails maintained by the community or are they going through someone else's land? There are a lot of things to think about and understand when it comes to buying an equestrian property

How did you become an equestrian?

Growing up my grandfather had horses He was a polo player From as long as I can remember I always wanted to be with the horses When I was 9 my parents finally let me ride after years of begging I rode in college but after that I decided to take a break I swore I would never ride again but after 13 or so years off, I took a couple lessons and it reignited the passion Now I am living my amateur dream

Tell us about your horse?

My horse’s name is Born to Fly, or Compi for short He is a 13 year old Holsteiner who is capable of jumping much bigger fences than I am He is the best! He is a total love on the ground and he really takes care of me, he is my heart horse

WYNN-SMITH LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTURE

Tim@wynn-smith com

Wynn-smith com

What excites us about these projects are the many opportunities to creatively work out design solutions harmonizing equestrian health and functional needs with human and vehicular requirements

Tim Smith, our principal landscape architect, enjoys sharing his knowledge of horses and design to creatively develop master plans that are not only safe and efficient but also beautiful and reflective of the client’s goals He gained practical experience by working at his father’s farm, Pegasus Stud in Lexington, Kentucky, working at the Keeneland and Fasig-Tipton Sales, and studying the many farms for which his father, an equine veterinarian at Hagyard Equine Medical Institute, worked

Some of the joys that are consistent with all of our projects around the country are the conversations we have with our clients about their unique desires and philosophy of raising/training their horses and how that will translate into their dream equestrian project

The European Stall Fronts serve as the centerpiece with graceful swoops, vented bottoms on the door, and polished aluminum end caps to add a touch of sophistication Each Stall System includes Grilled Stall Partitions which allows for ample airflow, natural light, and socialization Inside each stall lies state-of-the-art Stall Mattresses that are found in top facilities such as the World Equestrian Center (WEC) These mattresses offer the client’s horses superior comfort – crucial during inclement weather when turnout is less available Behind each Stall System is Dutch Doors with glass on top with protective grill guards The barn exterior also features American Stalls’ tasteful glass Barn Windows – driving modernity to the design while allowing natural sunlight to warm the barn The end result is a beautiful barn that is built to last

I have been a horse owner, jumper, and dressage rider for over 40 years After growing up in Guadalajara, Mexico, I moved to the US where I lived for over 20 years in Maui, Dallas and San Diego I moved back to Mexico in 2020 to complete my work as an equestrian consultant on the design of One and Only Mandarina Equestrian and Polo Club for RLH Properties Most recently I designed the future equestrian “Hacienda" at Xala, a resort currently under construction on the coast of Jalisco anchored by a Six Senses hotel I am currently working on a large state of the art jumper facility in Guadalajara and currently reside in Puerto Vallarta

Throughout my life, I have boarded and ridden horses in many locations and facilities That experience has allowed me to develop a very deep understanding of what works and what does not when it comes to horse care, facility design, and keeping clients happy After all, I have been a client myself and have a very high standard of care for my horses I have learned through personal experience the importance of site layout and the specific materials selected for footing, fencing, walkways, stall components, irrigation, ventilation, and surrounding landscaping All of these can be greatly affected by weather and location, so a knowledgable selection is crucial for the best results

I am a true believer that ensuring our horses' physical and mental well-being and safety will help keep them sound and happy in the long run My goal is to work with clients to construct their dream barn by creating an aesthetically stunning, horse friendly, practical, and low maintenance facility where their horses can thrive and have the freedom to be “horses ”

SUMMER EVENT

HITS Del Mar

In August, 2024, American Stalls invited some members of the Luxury Equestrian Network to join them for their private event at HITS Del Mar, where they sponsored the American Stalls $25,000 Grand Prix show It was a lovely afternoon of watching show jumping while getting to know a few new faces and enjoying the company of familiar ones

The beautiful horses jumping in the background was an added bonus to the atmosphere Some of the attendees had never experienced a real horse show, while others have actually competed in shows just like this While we try not to judge a network member on their jumping skills, we do get a kick out of exposing them to the equestrian lifestyle

EQUIVONT

Jessica@equivont com Equivont com

Born and raised in California on the back of a horse, Jessica had the opportunity to move across the country As a working amateur, she began researching options for bringing her horse along with her

Where to board? Who to train with? What farrier options were there? Who transports horses across the country?

After spending hours searching on the web, she became frustrated with the outdated, irrelevant information available Existing directories provided a name and a phone number at best and there was no way of telling if this professional was even in business any more After leaving countless voicemails that went unreturned and thumbing through archaic websites, it was obvious there is a huge disconnect between riders and the professionals

In any other service-related industry consumers search online to find out what their options are Whether it be a restaurant, a plumber, or buying a car Why wouldn’t horse people adopt a similar approach?

This experience powered the concept of Equivont Jessica teamed up with Jacki to bring this word-of-mouth industry up to the digital era

Equivont partners with reputable and relevant businesses and professionals who WANT TO BE FOUND by the equestrians who are searching for them
