Interesting the guy asked about FSBO and he got like 20 responses assuming he was selling. I sort of thought he was looking at Buying, especially since he has been posting on other threads about budgeting home remodelling issues.
My advice on buying a FSBO is do it. Hire McClin and Burnsed and they will do the paperfork for $500. I got an excellent deal on a home in Fernandina that was a FSBO. I think it would have been at least $10000 more if it were listed by TV or MLS.
As far as selling, I am not sold on it. Most people come here and work with 2 realtors, they are not looking for FSBOs. So you will get a lot more people looking with a TV agent.
I think the guy who was whining about paying a realtor probably worked his whole life and never asked for a paycheck, since he believes in people not getting paid for their work..... kind of stupid. Realtors work very hard and have to deal with a lot of "personalities". They deserve what they get.
