    The recent downturn of the American economy has also signaled a shortage of lenders willing to invest capital to all but the most pristine of creditors. While many Americans do not have a perfect credit rating, there are several exceptions to this trend, one of the most pivotal being the rate of borrowing for American farmers.

If mother or wife's main focus is the running of the horse operation, then she may overlook some of the short-comings of the house in favor of the perfect horse set-up, but don't count on it.
