Equine-related contracts sometimes include a “right of first refusal” clause that restricts how a horse can be re-sold. Through these clauses, a horse buyer agrees to give the seller an opportunity to buy back the horse later under certain specified conditions.
One feature of many equine transactions is that the seller often conditions the sale of a horse on the buyer's promise to notify the seller when the buyer wishes to sell the horses and give the original seller a chance to repurchase the horse. This is known as the Right of First Refusal (“RFR”).
A buyback agreement is a legal document in which a business owner transfers the ownership of shares back to the company instead of selling them directly to an investor. For example, a buyback agreement can be used when a company wants to repurchase its stock from current shareholders.
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.
The bill of sale should be signed by both the buyer and the seller, who should also both date a copy for their records. Take into account including a notary statement: Including a notary statement can help ensure the document's legitimacy and offer further legal protection.
What is included in a bill of sale? Buyer and seller details. You should include their full names, addresses, and contact information. Description of the item being sold. The sale agreement. Location and date of sale. Terms and conditions of the transaction. Buyer's signature and seller's signature.
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.
