Buy Low

To buy low, you have to have a good network. Develop contacts at the racetrack and the veterinarian’s office. When they come across a buyer who wants to sell a horse quickly, have them call you.

Once I was at the veterinarian’s office when someone was trying to sell a horse to another customer. The mare didn’t pass the veterinarian’s examination because of a severe case of thrush. The owner was so frustrated that she sold me the horse for $500. After a few months of treatment, I sold the mare for $3,000 and made a healthy profit. Sometimes it just takes being in the right place at the right time and a willingness to take some risk.

Groom for the Best Impression

A 45-minute clip and clean-up job can make or break the deal and potentially add hundreds of dollars to the sale price.
