FAQ
Get it in writing. When you buy or sell a horse, get written confirmation that the horse has been sold and that the title has transferred. Insist on a Bill of Sale and keep a copy of the document. Transfer the registration papers, or specify in the sale agreement if the horse is not being sold with papers.
Ownership of a horse may be established in a Bill of Sale, a written agreement between the seller and buyer (or agents such as trainers or bloodstock agents) or by contract construction. Many states now require the use of a written Bill of Sale in connection with most horse sales.
Discuss terms of the agreement with your agent and get them on paper before you begin looking at horses. Standard commissions range between 10 percent and 15 percent and may apply to both the buyer's and seller's agents. Agree ahead of time what your budget will be and if the commission must be included in your budget.
The Living Together section of Nolo also discusses various forms of contracts for unmarried people who want to share ownership of property. Also, because your shared home represents a major economic investment, you should hire a lawyer to help you prepare an agreement that meets your needs.
While it is not a title document like a vehicle title, a Horse Bill of Sale is essential for both the buyer and seller to protect their interests and provide a record of the horse's ownership transfer.
A horse bill of sale may detail the horse's name, the size of the horse, its gender, its lineage, markings, colors, and other physical features. This type of bill of sale may also include information about breeding the horse or any warranties if the horse is expected to produce young.
You would take steps to make it yours. Typically that is photographing the animal at different times over the tenure of your ownership (proving you've had it and given it care), giving it veterinary care, and microchipping or registering it. Keep your receipts for everything horse related.
A horse's passport and its breed registration paper do not provide conclusive proof of your ownership on their own. Ownership, therefore, depends upon other circumstantial evidence, such as a bill of sale.
