Owner Experience guides tagged “sales” from the Apex Equine resource center.

• Reading between the lines of a horse sale ad — Sale ads are written to sell, not to inform. Once you learn the code, the same fifteen phrases start telling you exactly what to ask next.
• The questions every horse buyer should ask — Ask every seller the same questions in the same order, and a confusing market suddenly sorts itself. Here are the ones that actually surface the truth.
• Selling your horse the right way — A horse sold honestly to the right home sells faster and stays sold. The shortcuts that seem to save time are the ones that come back to bite you.
• Pricing a horse for sale without leaving money on the table — Price too high and the horse sits while the ad goes stale. Price too low and you've given money away. Here's how to find the number the market will actually pay.
• Trials, on-approval, and protecting yourself as a buyer — A trial period can save you from a bad match — or land you holding the bill for a horse that gets hurt in your care. The difference is in the paperwork.
• Spotting and dodging online horse-sale scams — The horse that's too cheap, the seller who only texts, the deposit that has to go out today — online horse fraud follows a script. Learn it and you'll never fall for it.
