We have bought many horses over seas but this was the most seamless and honest process we have had highly recommended Teresa’s work.
I had a great experience purchasing my horse from Teresa. Not only did I get a wonderful horse, he was exactly what we were told he was. I have purchased a few horses from Europe and out of all of them Teresa made this the most seamless and honest process. She provided me with all the help after the purchase, and made sure he made it to his new home safe and healthy. While we have owned him she has followed up with us to make sure we are happy with him, and continues to cheer us on from a far. I would recommend Teresa to help you find a horse for you and your family.
I was apprehensive to shop outside of North America for horses for a client so I spoke with several agents in both Spain and Portugal. After really careful consideration I chose to work with Teresa. I definitely made the right choice. We had decided not to travel to try horses so we relied heavily on Teresa for literally everything. She went above and beyond in every aspect of the process and we couldn’t be happier with the first horse purchased. Currently Teresa is searching for the next horse. I definitely highly recommend Teresa if you are searching for your next Lusitano.!
Some of us just can’t afford to travel abroad to look at every promising sales horse, especially when it’s hard to know if an appealing ad reflects the information you need to make a determination whether or not to pursue the sale.
One way to save money and time is to hire an independent professional team to evaluate the horse for suitability to your needs and report back to you on their findings
Excellent communication skills as well as the ability to ride well are essential.
Teresa and Nuno check both boxes, teaming up to offer just such a service. They have saved me a great deal of time and money, by either reassuring me that a given horse was worth pursuing, or helping me determine that a promising individual is not a good fit for my needs.
This pair is very dialed in to the nuances of matching horse to rider, and can be relied upon to give accurate, unbiased assessments to help the absentee buyer gain more insight into the suitability of a given mount.
Big thumbs up to the services of Team.
