🟢 Selling through PHS, it’s a no-brainer, here’s why! 🟢

🌟 This also why we have a 100% success rate of happy buyers and sellers as well as a stirling reputation 🌟

🛑Sending a horse to a professional to sell

💰 $500 plus per week in agistment and schooling plus 10% commission on sale

💸 four week sales campaign, $20k horse, the owner receives $16k

💸 12 week sales campaign, $20k horse, the owner receives $12k

🛑 limited advertising and marketing

🛑 limited responses to enquiries as the professional is busy coaching or schooling horses

🛑limited updates to owner 

🛑limited involvement of owner in choice of potential buyer

🛑money is often handled by the professional 

🛑nothing in writing, other than a receipt of sale 

🟢Listing with Performance Horse Sales

💰$0 upfront for well educated and issue free horses plus 5% completion fee capped at $1500

🟢 the horse stays with the owner so $0 agistment or schooling charges

💸 up to 12 weeks sale campaign on $20k horse, owner still receives $18500k

🟢 professional advertising and marketing

🟢 super fast responses to enquiries

🟢 timely updates to owner including market analysis and advise

🟢 full involvement of owner in choice of potential viewer/ buyer; who are required to send a written form and ridden video prior to viewing even being booked

🟢 owner and potential buyer can communicate with each other directly if they wish

🟢 owner conducts the viewing with the potential buyer and assesses suitability 

🟢 owner receives money directly from buyer

🟢 everything is fully disclosed and in writing to protect all parties

🛑 We should add… selling the horse yourself:

🛑 stress

🛑 time wasting

🛑 uninformed decisions

🛑 issues

Selling with a professional - $8k

Listing with PHS - $1500

Selling yourself - ain’t gonna happen

If you do need a professional to school your horse - that’s fair enough! 

Just make sure they provide weekly video updates of the horses progress and that you can visit without prior notice, during business hours. 

If there is resistance, ask yourself why!
