I will do it on my own, as I have several times in the past elsewhere, which works to both my favor and the sellers (one less agent to pay). I have my eye on 2 or 3 pre-owned currently on the market and have no intention of hiring a buy-side agent.
That's it. That's how I will do it.

One point to consider, when we moved out here the PODS company took our two pods to Ocala as well. It took four months and we closed on our home. We called PODS, a week early like they said, but they said they would not be able to bring them out to us until August 10, and 14th. It was the last week in July when I called them. This would have put us in the rental house for another month.
When I told my husband about this and he called the Villages Movers and they said this was no problem, they get calls just like this all the time. The movers went to Ocala and they emptied both PODS into their truck and came here to move the stuff from their truck. It took until about 11 p.m.
Moral of this story is either tell them much earlier, about 2-3 weeks earlier, or call the Villages Movers.
