MEET THE FARMER'S CHOICE TEAM

The REALTORS® Behind Farmers Choice

At Farmers Choice Real Estate, we believe that successful farm transactions come from more than just market knowledge — they come from a team that truly understands the land, the lifestyle, and the business of farming.

Our three REALTORS® bring together years of real estate experience, agricultural connections, and a shared passion for helping farmers achieve their goals. Each member of our team contributes unique strengths, whether it’s expertise in quota-based operations, knowledge of crop land, or strong negotiation skills.

With a lifetime of hands-on farming experience and over 10 years as a dedicated farm realtor, I bring unparalleled expertise to every transaction. Growing up on a beef, hog and cash crop farm has given me a deep understanding of the unique needs and challenges of agricultural properties. 

As a proud graduate of the University of Guelph with a diploma in Agriculture Business, I combine practical farming knowledge with business acumen to deliver tailored solutions for my clients. Over my career, I’ve successfully sold over 10,000 acres of farmland and built an extensive buyer database, connecting sellers with qualified purchasers quickly and effectively. 

My achievements include being recognized in the Top 2% with Royal LePage in Canada from 2021 to 2024 and as a Top 10 Realtor in Ontario with Royal LePage in 2021 to 2023.

With a strong foundation in agricultural business, I bring extensive experience in guiding organizations toward achieving their goals in investments, business planning, and production. Over the years, I’ve been privileged to contribute to the success of various ventures, earning recognition for my innovative thinking, creative problem-solving, and openness to new ideas.
 
My unwavering dedication to delivering results has earned the trust and respect of colleagues and clients alike. I’m proud to bring that same passion and commitment to my real estate clients, ensuring their needs are met with care and excellence.
 
Born and raised on a farm outside of Fergus in Wellington County, I have deep roots in agriculture and firsthand knowledge of farming operations. My experience spans business planning, succession planning, and day-to-day farm management. Today, I live in Dufferin County, where I remain actively involved in farming alongside my husband and children.
 
Beyond work, I enjoy traveling and am known for going the extra mile—both figuratively and literally—for my clients. While I primarily serve Wellington, Dufferin, Peel, Grey, Bruce, Simcoe, and Waterloo Counties, I am more than willing to travel across Ontario to meet my clients’ needs.

My name is James Horst, a Mount Forest–based real estate agent with Royal LePage RCR Realty. I specialize in helping clients buy and sell farms and rural properties across Southern Ontario, making the process as smooth and stress-free as possible.
I was raised on a small dairy farm in Centre Wellington Township, where I learned the value of hard work and developed a deep comfort with livestock and agricultural life. Growing up in an Old Order Mennonite home, I gained firsthand experience with dairy, pigs, laying hens, and turkeys—knowledge that gives me a practical advantage when guiding clients in their farm search.
 
Today, I live in Mount Forest with my wife, Kaitlyn, and our growing family. Faith and community remain at the heart of my life, and I strive to honour God by serving others in everything I do.
 
I bring a lifetime of farm experience to the table. Whether you’re buying your first farm, expanding your operation, or looking to sell, I understand the unique challenges and opportunities that come with agricultural properties. My background ensures I can spot details and potential in a farm that others might overlook.
From dairy operations to livestock barns to workable acreage, I know what makes a farm valuable—and how to connect you with the right property.
 
I work extensively in Wellington North, Mapleton, Minto, Southgate, West Grey, and surrounding areas.
