[QUOTE=John_W;1881196]That has been discussed many times on TOTV. After ten years of reading posts about the subject, I personally would go with an MLS outside agency. You find out the MLS primary job is to sell resale homes. A Villages Agent primary job is to sell new homes and resales second.
I had neighbor a couple of years ago wanted to list their villa for $279K, TV agent said he wouldn't take it for more than $259K, they want to get a low price so they don't have to work it as much. He called an MLS agent and they listed for $279K and had multiple offers in the first week.
Exactly why you should try first to sell it yourself. The transaction details can be handled by a title company for a few hundred dollars, saving you thousands in real estate commissions. I have used Advantage Title for this twice in the past and been completely satisfied.
