Tracy Steinhardt Licensed Real Estate Agent — Queensland Rural & Equestrian Property Specialist | Steinhardt Property & Business
Tracy Steinhardt is a licensed Queensland real estate professional and the principal of Steinhardt Property & Business — a Queensland-based property and business brokerage specialising in rural, lifestyle and equestrian property sales, investment property, and business transactions across Australia. Unlike most agencies, Steinhardt Property & Business brings direct operational experience to rural property — Tracy has not simply sold these properties; she has designed, built and run one.
Raised in a pioneering Far North Queensland cattle family, her understanding of the land starts early and runs deep. Her father, Ian Steinhardt, was one of the first farmers globally to successfully implement Biodynamic farming in a tropical environment — navigating the specific challenges of soil health, insect management and sustainable pasture that define Far North Queensland's climate. That foundation shaped an approach to rural and equestrian property that is practical, technical and rooted in operational reality that no other agent in Queensland can replicate.
As an adult, Tracy did not merely advise on equestrian property — she designed, approved, built and operated one. From 2009 to 2022, she owned and operated Queensland's only professional Lipizzaner breeding stud, developing it from raw land into a fully self-sufficient equestrian property with professional facilities — 13 years of direct ownership and operation.
Credentials that inform this specialisation:
Designed and managed construction of residential, stable, breeding and training facilities on raw land in Far North Queensland
Designed and built a professional undercover horse training arena and associated equestrian infrastructure
Holding Post-Graduate qualifications in Animal Science, developed innovative horse breeding and foaling facilities engineered for sole-operator management — replacing the harsh stallion control techniques standard in the industry with her own training system, and developing an original mare receptivity detection technique that improved conception rates while minimising injury risk to both stallions and mares
Secured council approval for a self-contained septic system — rarely approved without mandated biocycle installations — alongside bore water, water management systems and auto-start generator
Managed soil testing, sustainable pasture management, sustainable fencing design and all building approvals throughout development
Operated Queensland's only professional Lipizzaner breeding stud (2009–2022), working collaboratively with Phoenix Park Lipizzaner Stud (South Australia) on national breeding programmes
Facilitated international Lipizzaner sales, including to the Prime Minister of Malaysia

Three-generation family legacy in Far North Queensland cattle farming and Biodynamic agriculture
What this means for buyers and vendors of rural and equestrian properties:
Tracy understands soil, water, pasture, infrastructure, sustainable systems and council approvals — not as concepts, but as decisions she has made and managed over more than a decade. She has designed equestrian infrastructure, navigated the approvals that stop most developments, and operated a sustainable rural property from the ground up.
Through Steinhardt Property & Business, Tracy works with buyers and vendors of rural, lifestyle and equestrian properties across all of Queensland. She also works nationally as a rural and equestrian facility development advisor and sustainable small livestock property consultant — available to landowners, developers and investors across Australia who are planning, building or improving rural and equestrian infrastructure. For property sales outside Queensland, Tracy works in conjunction with licensed real estate agents in the relevant state, ensuring clients have both the specialist rural knowledge and the local licensing required to complete the transaction correctly.
Whether you are selling a horse property, evaluating land for an equestrian centre, developing a sustainable livestock holding, or seeking advisory input on rural infrastructure — you are working with someone who has done it, not just sold it.
