Buying a property with a barn or planning to build one? The facilities decide how the place works every day—and what it’s worth when you sell.
Utah horse property. It’s what we do.
Through Equine Estates, Ben has sold MD Barnmaster barns, freestanding stalls, panels, feeders, waterers, and arena equipment for years. He can judge an existing barn on a listing—and help you design, price, and build the one you want next.
- Value existing barns by condition, layout, and build.
- Plan new barns around your horses and your lot.
- Shop stalls, waterers, and barn extras directly.
A PLAN YOU CAN FOLLOW
From the first question
to the next right step.
Start where you are. Work through the decisions together.
- 01
Assess what’s there.
Stall count and size, aisle width, ventilation, electrical, water, and the condition of the structure.
- 02
Plan the layout.
Barn placement, drainage, turnout access, hay storage, and room for an arena.
- 03
Choose the build.
A prefab steel barn like MD Barnmaster, a custom wood barn, or freestanding stalls in an existing building.
- 04
Permit and build.
Confirm setbacks and permits with the city or county, then schedule delivery and construction.

What makes a barn worth more.
Buyers and appraisers notice these.
Stalls
Size, footing, mats, grills, and safe latches.
Utilities
Lighting, outlets, frost-free waterers, and water lines that survive Utah winters.
Arena and footing
Size, drainage, base, and footing quality—plus groomers and upkeep.
Does Equine Estates sell barns and stalls?
Yes. Equine Estates sells MD Barnmaster barns and products, freestanding stalls, Noble Panels & Feeders, Lucas Equine Equipment, Classic Stalls, Hoof Grid, Nelson & Ritchie waterers, and arena equipment.
Do I need a permit to build a horse barn in Utah?
Usually. Most Utah cities and counties require a building permit for barns over a certain size and enforce setbacks. Check with the local building department before you order.
Does a new barn add value to a property?
A well-built, well-placed barn generally adds appeal for horse buyers, but the return depends on the property, the build, and the market. Ben can help you weigh the cost against likely resale value.
