I have read the thread entitled who to list with on this forum but would like to solicit some more comments. We currently have our house on the market here in the villages (we bought a larger one) and are advertising in the classified in the village sun.

If we don't sell it within a few weeks I'll be tempted to give it to an MLS or VLS agent. I have to admit that when we were looking for our next house, even though we told the vls agent we wanted pre-owned, there was clearly a hard push to buy new construction. This makes me Leary about giving our current home to a VLS agent. However, you can't argue with the fact that people who come to the villages, especially new folks, are swarmed by the vls agents.

They also are given the age old pressure tactic of ..if you don't buy this in the next three hours it will be gone forever... For new construction.

As a seller, I have a hard time not thinking that my home would be the last one to be shown and only if no new construction is available.

I would love to hear more from the folks that are or were in my shoes and what their experiences were.

The little classified ads under homes by owners are clearly swallowed up by the villages advertising with all their pictures and inserts...
