here is a list of tractors that would be good for such a size but you wont mow in 7 acres in an hour!
You dosay whether it groomed or rough
Here is a list of tractors that can be bought for under $3500. Make sure that you buy a DIESEL as gassers just cost to much to run these days even on 7 Acres specialy if you start moving dirt.

Ford 800 900 4000 2000
Massey Ferguson 35 or 135
Fordson Dexta
only a couple of hese have power steering some will have live power a must for mowing not all are strictly diesel so check that all have a cat 1 steering. Stay away from the John Deere 1010 diesel bum engine from new. 1015 or 1020 is OK but expensive for what you get. A loader would be nice and should have its own Hyd pump power down and hyd dump.
All these have parts available. Except the Dexta but is a very good tractor with little maintence when in decent shape. Have a independent mechanic look at what you are buying first. As much repair to any of these can cost bigtime.
