Are you ready to search for your 4 hoofed best friend but don’t know where to begin? Do you have to sell your current horse before you can start to look for another? At Paradox Farm, we have a large array of connections across the country and with a long history or match making under our belts, we feel confident in our ability to help you along in your horse ownership journey. Whether you need to sell a horse or want to buy a new one, we understand how emotional of a process it may be, and we can help facilitate every step to make the process as seamless as possible for you.
Seller’s Agent
A seller’s agent is an equine professional who works on your behalf to facilitate the sale of your horse(s). Acting as your seller’s agent, Paradox Farm will efficiently handle all aspects of marketing and showing your horse to potential buyers.
An experienced seller’s agent handles all of the following on your behalf:
- Placement of ads and social media
- Correspond(s) with prospective buyers
- Schedules times for buyers to see your horse
- Makes videos, as appropriate
- Communicates information to both the potential buyers and the owners of a horse
Once a pre-purchase is scheduled and a price negotiated, a seller’s agent will work on getting all veterinarian records to the pre-purchase veterinarian. We will be present at the exam to represent the owner’s interests.
After a sale is concluded, we will draft a bill of sale, disclosing all commissions as well as having the buyer and seller’s signatures. We will also provide a sales portfolio from our sponsors on products our services you might be able to utilize. We offer sales services to clients who are selling a horse, but who may not have the time, or experience, to efficiently facilitate the process. We help with what can become a complicated, time consuming, and often emotional process for a seller.
At Paradox Farm, we possess a specific skill set to facilitate the sale of a horse, such as knowledge of how to appropriately craft an advertisement to attract the ideal buyer. We will help to coordinate the pre-purchase exam with a buyer or buyer’s agent, prepare appropriate paperwork for transfer of ownership, and help with scheduling the transportation after a sale with all parties.
A professional with many years of experience and expertise is an excellent asset in your sales journey. We will make sure that the process is handled correctly, and efficiently so that you find the best home possible for your horse without adding additional anxiety to an already stressful process.
Buyer’s Agent
Having trouble finding the right horse?
Taking too much time to sort out videos and making unproductive, costly trips?
Don’t know what questions you need to be asking, or how to spot the red flags?
That’s where we come in.
We have extensive contacts worldwide with both professionals and individuals with horses to sell, and we can arrange to have many horses for you to try, often in one location.
Once we receive your “wants & must have’s” criteria, we will source out several, usually 6-12, horses that meet your needs, provide a central viewing site, and then help you evaluate your choices.
After you select your dream horse we can negotiate a price with the owner, arrange for veterinarian services to assess your choice and then work with you to get your new horse home and transfer ownership papers.
