Sell Your Property At An Undoubtedly Worthy Price

It has been your home for many years perhaps for decades and to you fault and your home must never be said under the same breath. However, if you are to sell your property at a great price you’ve got to be willing to give it that touch you didn’t think was necessary over the years. Say for instance you are selling an equestrian property. What are some of those conspicuous parts that every buyer has their eyes fixed on?

Top on the list is the barn.As much as the old adage warns us against judging a book by its cover, Truth be told we still do and thus where better to start than with the door and the windows. Best thing is that you don’t need to buy new ones unless the current ones are in a totally dilapidated state. Actually new doors should be the last option since they could considerably change the appearance of the entire barn and alter its historic significance. Check the hinges, sliding tracks, latches and what have you keeping in mind that the number one enemy for doors is heavy weights, lack of enough lubrication and extreme temperature.

Floor and roof-Concrete is the most common kind of flooring in horse stables and is thus prone to potholes and dents given that horses are very active animals.Check the drains also if there are any if there aren’t wash the floor clean in case of any ammonia build up. The roof too should be checked for any leakages as they can also ruin the floor.

Lighting- Check the electricity plug-ins and the wall socket.Check the if the entire barn is properly lit 

Feeding and watering equipments-Check if they need to be replaced

The outward appearance - perhaps could look better with a  paint touch. Then again as i stated earlier, be careful not to alter that original and very sought after historic look.Of course  there are more sections that are just as important and its hence wise that you make an all round visit and seek another persons opinion.

Now go ahead and mention your price confidently!

Buying a horse? Dont make these mistakes

It’s imperative that you discern the purpose of your soon to be horse as this will guide you to getting the kind of horse most appropriate.

·         As a first time horse buyer, avoid buying at an auction- this kind of  arrangement does not allow you time to assess and evaluate the animals on offer. It also hardly allows you the insight of an impartial professional

·         Going for cheap-While it is important that at the current state of the economy you spend wisely, you should keep in mind the saying that cheap is expensive. Enquire why it goes for the cheapest price. Then again keep in mind that the reason might be because the seller is desperate to sell so do not completely rule it out. Get a second and even third opinion

·         Buying an untrained horse- Unless you have vast experience with horses which I assume you don’t, go for a horse that is relatively mature and trained. Buying an untrained horse will see you spend more money on a trainer soon afterwards. Then again don’t go for a horse that by far surpasses your level of proficiency as far as horsing is concerned unless you are considering getting some training before you can ride alone.

·         Failing to get the horse’s health evaluated – It isn’t wrong as some might think, to bring your vet along if only to be sure.  Get their general observations including what they think about the horse’s feeding habit, the standing posture, skin, everything and anything. Don’t be afraid that you’ll appear naïve.

·         Being too firm on the exact physical characteristics the horse must possess. Say coloring, coat pattern and what have you. Allow other ideas too.

·         Failing to get insurance- Most people underestimate the value of horse insurance forgetting the amount agony it may save you in the future since there is always a possibility that something could go wrong even with all the precautionary measures. 

      After all is said and done, your horse needs a great place where he can feel at home so don’t deny him that because as they say; a happy horse = a happy owner

sTAY INFORMED -eQUINE HEALTH.

The importance of your horse’s health can never be overemphasized .A sick horse is of no much use and could be a major source of distress. It is however possible to keep diseases at bay by carrying out certain precautionary measures. Just like the old adage goes; prevention is better than cure. It is also important that you already can tell between a sick and a healthy horse otherwise the difference will be the same. Outlined below are some activities that every horse owner should carry out on a daily basis

Your horse’s feeding pattern- How can you describe his appetite keeping in mind that horses EAT. If on more than one occasion he left his food untouched or ate too little then it would be about time you sought the services of a medic. And when we are still dealing with matters food, I need to point out that indeed your horses excretion says a lot. A healthy horse’s manure is soft though well formed and not watery. On the other hand an unhealthy horse’s manure is either too soft or too hard. If too hard it could normally mean that he has not been taking enough water and thus a digestion problem. If too soft it could be a worm problem and at times an indication that perhaps the diet is too rich with certain components. Worms could be deadly. De-worm your horses on time.

Observe your horse’s feet as small stones and other substances could find their way into his hooves. This could not only be a major source of distress but could develop to an ailment if left unattended. Use a hoof pick to remove the substances .Check for cracks and other anomalies

Eyes- just like in human beings, eyes say a lot. Watery, swollen or an abnormal coloration in the eyes should raise concern. Apart from being a sign of any bodily ailment, it could also be a sign of an eye condition and could develop to equine blindness if unattended.

The horses lying and standing posture-A healthy horse should look peaceful when lying down. However an unhealthy horse looks agitated; writhes repeatedly and expresses discomfort in his facial expressions. If this goes on for long, it is certainly time to call a vet. As it’s commonly known horses do not stand with their front legs resting, so if this happens, it should raise your attention.

There are many signs that you should look out for, Hence you should take your time to observe every part including the ears, nose, teeth etc 

Be alert lest your horse dies on you!
