  1. Ever since 1980, I've sold my own houses. I read a book, "For Sale By Owner" that came out then, and followed it carefully. And since I was willing to "split" what would have been a realtor's fee, I sold them quickly, because my houses were priced more competitively than the MLS ones were. Win-win for both buyer and seller!

  2. I inherited 2 lots in NC in a golf course retirement community. I've unsuccessfully tried to sell them several times over the years with no success, using realtors who charge 10% commission, and as far as I can tell, they do NOTHING to market them! I would attempt selling them myself if I lived in NC, and I may have to list them on ebay. What a ripoff most realtors are! And btw, ALL realtors in Franklin NC charge 10% of the selling price of a property! And the state of NC requires that any real estate sale/title change MUST be done by an attorney!

  3. I agree! And get a good, thorough certified home inspector to inspect it prior to making an offer.

  4. In FL, most agents are transaction-only salespeople. And that's in the contract. They represent no one. (It is done apparently to avoid lawsuits.)

  5.  @MichaelBordenaro Michael, FL agents are doing "transaction-only" sales, as far back as 2012 when I last sold property in FL. IOW, the agents represent the transaction, only. Just like shoe salesmen!

  6. The salespeople will tell you they cannot reduce the 6% commission (or 10% commission in NC. That's based on my experiences!)
