Which tractor should I buy?

I have recently purchased a pretty flat 12.5 acres in Northern Indiana. I want to fill in a garden (1 acre or less), have a small section of woods, and just want to generally brush hog the property and keep it mowed down. I have about $10k-25k I could use to purchase a tractor or I could finance something.

What size and or year and or brands should I consider? I am open to new and used, just want something reliable…
