How much is my horse worth???

my horse is a very calm, gentle horse. she srands for farrier and baths and loves having attention. she comes up to you when she is in the pasture. she is easy to catch and easy to saddle. you can easily saddle her in 5 minutes. she doesn't buck, kick, nor bite you. you can walk underneith her and behind her and make loud noises of all sorts and she will not get scared. she has been doing barrel racing for 3yrs and has had professional training in it. she runs in times of 15 through 18 seconds. she has never came lower than 3rd place at any competition. she has never knocked down a barrel in her entire life. she has been doing jumping for about 2 months now and she can jump up to 3 1/2ft. in just the second week of training she could jump 2ft. she is very pretty and lovable. she doesn't get spooked too easily and is really easy to ride. she is sorrel with 4 white stockings and a white blaze down her face.


i was thinking of selling her. how much do you think she is worth to sell for???

How much is my horse worth???
I would want to know bloodlines, too, and at what level is she running barrels. It would mean a lot more if she is a 1D horse than if she had been entered in local playdays or open shows. It could mean the difference in $2000 and $20,000!
Reply:3,000 is what id sell her for
Reply:I would say $5,000. If she was younger I would $8,000
Reply:seems like a great horse.


If i were you, and i had to sell her/him, i would go for ..


13,000 OBO (or best offer)
Reply:$15000- she sounds very nice, but is older.
Reply:Height? Age? More information! She sounds like a great horse! Goodluck!
Reply:I don't know, but I'd like to see some pictures because my husband is actually looking for a good barrel racing horse. PLEASE contact me!
Reply:why would you sell such an awesome horse? but i am sure you have your reasons i don't know what the market is like in your area so i cant exactly tell you how much she is worth in my area you can find horses like her in the price range $1500 and up,the best thing for you to do is look at other horses for sale in your area that are similar to her and go from there
Reply:If I were you I'd keep her. Why do you want to sell her? She is perfect! Anyways. I think acouple thousands.
Reply:Yes, she sound like a very valuable horse. Spinout980 had a good idea too, a link to a few photos would help in determening a lot.
Reply:Why do you want to sell your horse?
Reply:well it depends where you live, but in az she is worth about $4,000-$5,000.


ask yourself these things too:


is she good on trails


how old is she


does she trailer well


any major health problems.


does she have a good pedigree


is she registered


does she have good ground manners


does she stand when you want to saddle her


how tall is she


what breed





these are things you will want to mabye mention in your ad.
Reply:My oh my why would you want to sell a horse like that? That's a one in a million horse! You didn't really have enough detail. Like the person said above me, you need to know more things such as blood lines because that could REALLY vary your prices.
Reply:Your horse is worth a good home and caring owners, you should let the price be flexible!
Reply:well it is hard without age.bloodline,and what kind of horse she is but i would say if you really want to sell her 1,500-7,000 but you should post another question with a pic you really have to have a pic of her!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


hope this helps and good luck
Reply:i think she is worth like $ 5000.00 from what youre telling me
Reply:Your horse is worth as much as someone wants to pay.
Reply:Honestly there is no way anyone on here could tell you how much your horse is worth because we don't know her.


To you she could be worth a million... but to someone else she could be worth $500.





It depends on your location, the market for that particular kind of horse there.





Temperment has alot to do with how a horse sells. We on YA dont' know what kind of temperment she has.





How old? What color is she, her height, does she have papers- any good bloodlines- horses with excellent pedigrees can sell for upwards of 45,000 just from thier bloodlines.


What breed is she? Is she good with kids? Can a novice rider handle her or will she require an experienced rider?


Are you going to try and sell her mainly as a barrel horse or a jumper?





Is she struturally correct? Has she been vet checked sound? Does she get along with other horses?





I'm not very "jumper" oriented but know that in that profession some horses can sell and be quit pricey. However I do know the barrel racing aspect of it.


Here are a few question I would ask if i were interested in buying her as a barrel horse.


How long has she been running barrels? Who did she have professional training with? What did THEY say about her?


Does she have a willing attitude when it comes to running? Is she gate sour? Where have you run her? Local playdays or open shows? That makes a big difference when you say 1D or 3D. My horses that are for sale have run at the professional level... we have been on the pro rodeo circut tour for a year now. How long have you owned her? Has she been in any accidents of any sort (I.E. leg caught in fence, run through barbed wire etc.)





What you did tell us about your horse is a GREAT start! What you stated are definately questions i would have asked- does she clip, load, bathe, etc.- These are just SOME questions that i could think of off the top of my head. I'm sure there are ALOT more.There are SOOOO many question that need to be answered when selling horses. It is impossible for us to tell you how much she is worth over the internet and not even seeing this horse! Pictures would obviously help but still we wouldn't be able to give you an accurate price.





I would have a proffessional give you an opinion, maybe a person you barrel race with... or how about the trainer that trained her to barrel race. I'm sure they could give you a more round about answer than we could on here.





And last but not least, prices on horses vary alot with people. Like i said to begin with. She could be worth a million to you but $500 to someone else. I would put a price tag on her that you are happy with, that YOU! think she is worth... how much is she worth to you? If you were buying this horse, how much would you pay for her?





I really hope I helped and you get the answers you are looking for about your horse.





(PS... to get money for a horse is always a good thing... but to me its more about the satisfaction of knowing that that particular horse i sold... went to a great home and will be used to his fullest potential)





Again good luck.


if you can be of any further assistance you can email me. dara_2005_pearce@hotmail.com
Reply:it depends a lot on the breed even with all those characteristics but she is a jumping horse you said so that raises the value to mabey 15 grand and im sure sombody would want a great horse lik that so i would say mabey 15 to 10 grand and she is in barrel competitions so that might raise the price to 17 to 13 grand you would get a lot of money for this horse
Reply:First of all, a horse should not be jumping 3'6 after only 2 months of jumping, maybe free jumping but definitely not with a rider.





I don't really think anyone on here is going to be able to fully answer your question. I would suggest having a trainer or an appraiser come out to your farm and take a look at her, as there are many factors that can bring the value up or down. You might also want to consider finding a top notch barn that takes consignments, as someone is going to be more likely to spend more at a nicer barn than out of someones backyard.
Reply:dont sell your horse because it can be your life saver or friend at times of distree or trouble and if you want to sell it the price can be 2ooooo$ according to its breed or age.
