Good to know
How much does a pre-purchase examination (PPE) typically cost?
A basic physical pre-purchase exam typically costs between $300 and $600. Advanced exams that include digital radiograph sets, upper airway endoscopy, and drug screening range from $1,000 to $2,500 depending on the scope of diagnostics. The prospective buyer is standardly responsible for selecting and paying the examining veterinarian.
What is the standard procedure for placing a deposit on a sale horse?
Sellers generally accept a deposit of 10% of the asking price or a fixed sum between $200 and $500 to hold a horse pending a pre-purchase exam. A written agreement must specify whether the deposit is refundable if the horse fails the veterinary inspection within a set window of 5 to 10 business days.
How do trial periods work when buying from a horse stable?
On-site trials lasting 1 to 3 days allow buyers to ride under seller supervision, often for a nominal daily fee or free of charge. Off-site trials lasting 1 to 4 weeks usually require full purchase funds held in escrow, short-term mortality/major medical insurance, and a signed contract assigning care responsibility to the buyer during the trial period.
