Sales
If you are
ready to buy or sell a horse, Inverness Farms is prepared to help
you. Horses are a big investment, and making the correct selection
when purchasing a horse can save you time, money, and headaches down
the road.
Likewise if you
have a horse to sell, finding the right buyer for your horse can
also be difficult and time-consuming, and Inverness Farms can help
you through that process.
Our objective
with horse sales is to handle the transaction in the most efficient
and professional manner possible.
Buying a Horse
We follow a
series of steps when looking for a horse for a client to buy:
 | The client
(the buyer) fills out a questionnaire provided by Inverness
Farms that details the buyer’s requirements and preferences.
|
| Inverness
Farms then uses our extensive Triangle area contact list to
search for any local area sale horses that fit the buyer’s
criteria. |
| Inverness
Farms also conducts a thorough Internet search, using web sites
that have proven very successful in previous horse searches. |
| Inverness
Farms uses its own proprietary interview techniques when
contacting horse sellers to gain as much information as possible
about the sales horse. |
| Inverness
Farms provides the buyer with a written, detailed profile of
each horse prospect. |
| For any
horse prospect that the buyer is interested in, Inverness Farms
will set up the appointments to view the horse. |
| Inverness
Farms will assess the horse prospect’s suitability for the
buyer. |
| If the
buyer is interested in purchasing the horse, Inverness Farms
will help in the sales negotiation process, can provide sales
contracts, and will help in evaluating the veterinary
pre-purchase examination findings if an exam is conducted. |
| Inverness
Farms can provide transportation of the sales horse after
purchase. |
