Four Tips When Purchasing a Horse Property in Park City, Utah

Purchasing a horse property in Utah, particularly in sought-after markets like Park City, involves more than just selecting a home with land. Buyers must evaluate legal, environmental, and practical aspects such as water rights, zoning, and parcel boundaries. This section outlines key considerations to help you decide when buying equestrian real estate in Utah.

1. Utah Water Rights

In Utah, water rights are treated as real property but are legally separate from the land. Buyers should confirm whether water rights are included in the sale and ensure they’re properly transferred via the Report of Water Right Conveyance.

  • Use It or Lose It: Water rights must be used consistently. Rights can be forfeited if unused for seven years unless a nonuse application is filed.
  • Change Applications: If you plan to adjust how or where water is used (such as adding irrigation), submit a change application to the State Engineer.
  • Professional Help: Hire a water rights attorney or engineer to verify ownership and usage permissions. For guidance, see the Utah Division of Water Rights FAQ.

2. Surveying Large Parcels

Equestrian properties often range from 1 to over 100 acres. A professional land survey ensures clear boundaries and protects your investment. Surveys are particularly important in areas like Kamas, where property lines may have been surveyed decades ago.

  • Permitting: Building barns, arenas, or stables may require detailed site plans based on surveys.
  • Encroachments: Surveys identify any structures or easements crossing property lines that could limit use.
  • Legal Clarity: Surveys help title companies issue insurance and reduce boundary disputes.

3. Other Important Considerations

  • Zoning: Ensure the land is zoned for equestrian use. Communities like Red Hawk and Silver Creek generally support horse ownership, while others like The Colony have restrictions.
  • HOA Rules: Always review CC&Rs for limits on horses, fencing, and equestrian facilities. Promontory and Red Ledges have HOAs with varying regulations.
  • Access to Trails: Look for properties near the Uinta National Forest or local trail systems like Wolf Creek Ranch.
  • Fencing: Avoid outdated or unsafe fencing like barbed wire. Evaluate fencing on-site for safety and repair needs.
  • Utilities: Confirm power, septic, and internet availability—especially in rural areas like Kamas Valley.
  • Soil & Drainage: Proper drainage supports pasture health and building stability. Poor soils can create long-term maintenance issues.
  • Equestrian Services: Access to vets, farriers, and trainers is crucial. Heber and Salt Lake City offer robust service networks.
  • Greenbelt Tax Savings: Properties used for agricultural purposes may qualify for reduced taxes under Utah’s Greenbelt Act.
  • Conservation Easements: Check for land use limitations in communities like Ranches at the Preserve.

4. Buyer Tips for Park City Horse Properties

  • Define Priorities: Consider whether you need training, boarding, or casual riding space. Areas like Old Ranch Road are close to town, while Wolf Creek Ranch offers maximum privacy.
  • Inspect Thoroughly: Review all buildings, fencing, irrigation, and pastures for wear or compliance.
  • Hire Experts: Work with a Park City Realtor experienced in equestrian transactions, plus legal and surveying professionals who understand large land parcels and Utah-specific laws.
