There sure can be a commission paid to the buyers agent. When I sold my last house on my own, I had a couple of agents telling me they had a buyer and if that was so, I agreed to pay a % to the buyers agent.
It is very easy to sell a house these days. I posted a simple ad in our community that said: “I’m thinking of selling my house” and I had 6 people call me within the 1st day. No pictures, no price. I had people within our community tell their friends and the frenzy started.
I would do the same here, I would also post an ad in TTOTV, Facebook marketplace, Facebook in NYC, LA, San Fran, Portland, Seattle, and in more places. I would also use the mls if I could find a way to place it, but that would be last resort. Do not list it on Craigslist, too many problems using that site
