Full Service Brokering:
There are no broker fees involved in the initial listing of your horse with us. We simply require the owner to fill out a questionnaire on the horse, which will allow us to get to know your horse (if we don't already know it personally). We also ask for good quality photos and/or videos. If you are limited in your ability to provide these, we can be of assistance. Then we will discuss with you, what we think is the best marketing plan for your horse. Marketing by us, on our website, as well as other 'free' listing sites is free. But when ads are placed on other marketing sites that charge a fee, we ask that you reimburse us for those costs, which are usually minimal.
Our full service brokering puts all the work of marketing and answering emails and inquiries in our hands. So if you don't like to answer emails and phone calls at all hours, with various questions about your horse and why you are selling it, then this is the option for you.
Upon completion of the sale of your horse, you will owe the sales commission. The industry standard is a 10% commission. We follow this to some extent, but offer a lower rate for horses whose sales price are over $25,000, using a sliding scale. Our sales commission is 10% on the first $25,000 of sales price and an additional 5% on any amount over $25,000. This is not standard in the industry and sets BEST ~ FIT apart from the rest. For Example:
Sales price of $30,000 would yield a commission of $2,750 ( 10% of $25,000 plus 5% of $5,000)
Sales price of $50,000 would yield a commission of $3.750 (10% of $25,000 plus 5% of $25,000)
Limited Service Brokering:
As a new service, we will offer a limited marketing option for those who do not want to pay a 10% sales commission, and who are not opposed to handling buyer inquiries on their own. With this service, we will provide advertising of your horse on our website including photos and video that you provide. But all buyer inquiries on these listings will be directed to you, the owner, or someone else you designate. We are also willing to offer pricing advice, and advice on what kind of ads will work best for you, and we can offer insight on other good places to advertise. The cost for this service is $35 for 3 months of listing. Our website currently gets over 3,000 hits per month, with nearly 1,000 unique visitors per month, so your advertising money is well spent.
