How to Buy
At Valley Horse Ranch, we believe purchasing a horse should be a simple, transparent, and stress-free experience. Whether you are searching for a dependable family horse, a trusted trail companion, or a performance prospect, we are here to help you find the right match and guide you through every step of the process.
Step 1: Browse & Select
Begin by exploring the horses currently available at Valley Horse Ranch. Each listing provides information about the horse, along with photos and videos to help you learn more about their appearance, temperament, training, and abilities. Once you find a horse that interests you, contact us by phone, email, or through our online inquiry form.
Step 2: Ask Questions & Learn More
We encourage you to ask as many questions as you need before making your decision. Our goal is to provide clear and honest information about each horse, including their background, experience, training, temperament, and suitability for your needs. We want you to feel comfortable and confident throughout the buying process.
Step 3: Visit the Ranch
If you are able to visit us in person, we welcome you to schedule an appointment to meet your horse after placing a 40% deposit on the horse/s you are interested in. The deposit is fully refundable and also transferrable to another horse of your interest. After we have confirmed your deposit, we will schedule a time for you to come and spend time with the horses, interact with them, and get a better feel for their personality and suitability. Most buyers choose to purchase remotely, and we are happy to assist with the process from a distance. For your peace of mind, we will ship with a 60 day money back guarantee.
Step 4: Reserve or Purchase Your Horse
