Bill of sale

[striderrider]

What things need to be on a Bill of Sale? Can I make up my own or do I have to use some sort of official document? Is there a sample I can use somewhere?

Thanks!

You can make up your own bill of sale. The bill of sale should include the name of the horse, who the purchaser is, who the seller is, what the purchase price is and the terms of the purchase. I.e. Is the horse to be paid in full or is there a payment plan in place? If there is a payment plan, then this needs to be outlined precisely in the bill of sale.

There should also be a mention if the horse is sold "as is" or if there are any guarantees in place.

If transportation is an issue then there should be a mention of who is responsible for any shipping fees as well.

Thank you this is great

How much you paid isn't necessary, just Paid in Full and signed by the seller.

See I would put the price in there so that there can be no discrepancies as to what the actual price was. I have seen a few sales go sideways and people need to be held accountable as to what was actually paid.
