CHEVALLIER EQUINE APPRAISAL SERVICE

Western Performance Horse Appraisals

As an active member of the American Society of Equine Appraisers, I will appraise horses for a variety of reasons including insurance and tax purposes, divorces, loans, bankruptcies, establishing and/or dissolving business partnerships and purchasing or selling horses, just to name a few.

My many years of experience and great interest in horses led me to develop this service.  I am familiar with a variety of equine breeds, including quarter horses and paint horses and many others involved in western disciplines, such as reining, working cow horse, rodeo, barrel racing, roping and breed shows.

I welcome the opportunity to discuss my services in more detail and to be of service to you in the future. 

Sincerely,

Sandy Chevallier
