Going it alone is more difficult than it seems.   Paperwork, pricing, and timing are the biggest hurdles facing FSBOs according to a 2007 survey of home buyers and sellers by the Texas Association of Realtors.  Working with a realtor, the seller gains an advocate who looks out for the seller's interests throughout the selling process. Can you afford not to partner with a realtor?

Currently, about 30% of home sellers first try to sell on their own.  And while some who go the FSBO route are successful, statistics show nearly 80% end up using a realtor or give up all together.   I believe most who choose to sell by owner do so in order to maximize the proceeds from their sale.  Don't let your desire to save on the real estate commission cost you a fortune in lost time and money.
