Thank you to everyone for taking the time to respond -
every little bit helps.

For your info - I have only owned my home less than 4 yrs, and 'tho I would love to hire a realtor ANY commission will mean my losing money on this sale which is why I must try to sell myself. Also, Gracie, I have already called 3 title co's re' handling the "closing"
Plus McLin & B. The cheapest was approx.$2400 with McLin coming in the highest at $4,000-$7,000 depending on the sale price. The cost of Title insurance alone (in my opinion a big "rip-off" and should not be necessary if whoever doors the title search does their job) is $885
Quoted by title cos. McL & B will, I am sure be more!

For some reason, selling oneself is not popular with buyers in The Villages. I have been offered less than 6%
By two realtors anxious to represent me. I live on the historical side ---- but on a golf course which may a plus.

Will check into The Villages4Sale and FSBO and hope I'm successful. Again, very many thanks to you all.
