We have a modest sized home at roughly 1,800 sq. ft. on 3 acres in an agriculturally zoned area of North Carolina.
We converted the shed, that has dedicated power and a concrete slab back half we use as feed storage, that we converted into a chicken coop.
In the far back left of the property, we have a large pen area that we made from both scrap and new materials, but it’s sturdy. Very sturdy. We’ve held heritage hogs in it that get 800+ lbs.
Like any seller, we don’t want to break the bank or our backs by doing unnecessary work when it could be a possible selling point. How difficult, generally, would it be to sell our home as is? In the sense of being geared towards a homestead?
I assume that many people who want to live in an area and a property like this have a similar mindset to us. But I also know many people still want a very residential property but the country living.
How difficult is selling farm-centric property?

Where in North Carolina? Market makes a huge difference.
What city?
To answer your question no it’s not a problem. If you want the most money possible list with an agent and on MLS it will say is to be sold as-is but your pricing will need to be discounted for this. Buyers are not purchasing as-is and paying top dollar unless it was insanely desirable. Even with paying commission this will net you the most money besides for sale by owner.
If you don’t want to deal with the market then selling to an investor will net you 50-70% of market value. But that will be as-is leave anything behind and pick your close date. There is a big cost for that convenience.
Depending on which part of North Carolina, I can help guide you to a solution. Send me a dm if you want.
