Her advice on bargaining for price and on letting the sellers know your intentions is incredibly useful. Protocol for buying, although not set in stone, is explained, including how to talk about the price in relation to the vet check. Usually it is expected for the horse to be paid off in two weeks. Catherine talks about her system of buying and selling as opposed to buying from a broker. She also gives her recommendations on when to insure the newly purchased horse.
