More about the practice
  • I cannot speak more highly of the first rate service we received from Stier Horse Appraisal. We recently worked with Lindsey when we donated our daughter's horse to a local collegiate program. She makes the appraisal process simple and easy. I provided the necessary information via her web site, quickly received an appraisal estimate, and then timely received the more detailed appraisal and paperwork we will need for the IRS. In addition, Lindsey was easy to reach via text or email if I had any questions along the way. She is a true professional!

  • Stier Horse Appraisal has helped my mother and I with every horse purchase and a ton of potential purchases over the last 10 years. Lindsey and her team have a ton of experience, they are incredibly knowledgeable and always spot on with the market. I highly recommend this multifaceted team for all your equestrian appraisal needs! We are very happy customers and look forward to each time we get to work with them and talk horses!

  • Working with Lindsey and her team was a very easy and supportive experience. They are professional, knowledgeable, accessible and know their business. It was nice to work with someone who loves horses and is also so capable in her area of expertise. They communicate well and are happy to answer questions and follow up after the initial service. We recommend them highly for all horses of all disciplines.

  • I have worked with Lindsay on quite a few donations, and it has always worked out very well for both the horse and the establishment receiving the donation. She is great at matching a horse to the establishment or riders and that may be using that mount. She also put together some purchases and lease purchases for me with her students that also worked out quite well. Lindsay is very knowledgable, conscientious, trustworthy, honest, driven and will work hard. I would not hesitate to work with her on another donation!
