If a person is looking for a home in my area or development their realtor will show the listings of homes in my development which I';m included. I also was able to put a house for sale sign on my front window which people see and inquire about it some have even contacted me . Believe me it"s easy no more work than if you listed it with a realtor.
You should know the realtor loses the listing, and selling fees so if you go flat fee they will make it sound like you need them, no way , right now in the jersey area flat fee is becoming the way to sell your home

I was kind of targeting the OP who was talking about $50+k in commissions. The more expensive the home, the more marketing needed unless there are significant one of a kind features or premium locations. In a healthy market and in a desirable area and in a middle of the road price range, it should be more straight forward.
