I successfully sold my mother in laws house (in Maryland) last year on Craigslist. Key here is to qualify buyers and to watch out for spam responses that are fishing for emails etc.

There are also Facebook groups that are dedicated to real estate buying and selling in some areas.

Advertised for 3 days at a time---cost about 80.00 each time--- sold the second three day open house. Lots of traffic each day. Really the key is to price it correctly if you want to sell it----slightly under the "market" price. :wave:

I wonder if anyone ever sold a house by posting it on TOTV?
