How to sell a house by owner? Now before I get attacked for being greedy or overpricing, let me explain my situation. In a nutshell: My hubby got a job offer across the country. We have to move in the next 3 months. According to 5 potential realtors I interviewed, who did comparisons, said our house is currently worth anywhere from $250-$255k. By the looks of it, to lure buyers in we might have to price at $252k All the realtors want anywhere from 5-6% commission, we owe 245k. Do the math, that puts us in a big hole and we don't have any cash to put up front. I figured the only way to save money is to sell it ourselves and offer the buyer to pay closing costs or something. I'm pretty marketing savvy and my free time is dispensable. The only drawback might be not being able to list it on the MLS, and have less exposure. My best friend is a lawyer so she could help me pro-bono with all the legal mumbo jumbo. As far as staging and decor, all 5 potential realtors that I interviewed said my house was in great showing condition and that I had great taste. I guess my question is, is how do I make myself appear like I know what I'm doing? I know most buyers won't even want to do business with a FSBO, but it looks like the key is to let them know that I know what I'm doing, that way they'll feel confident and comfortable with me. The highest it will sell even with a realtor is 255k. Like I said they want 5% I owe 245k I'll be in the hole for sure.
Should I use For Sale By Owner to sell my house? My husband and I have a small "starter" house he purchased before we married.

The house is not in disrepair, but it does require som work and we really just want to sell it for payoff of the mortgage ($44,000) So any thoughts?
If I sell a house by owner, do I owe my old agent a commission? If a party came in with an offer while we had an agent and we rejected it...then after our contract expired with that agent and the same party gave a new offer to us while it was for sale by owner..do we owe anything to that agent. On a side note the agent we had never showed the house to those clients. We did. The offer is different then the original one we rejected. I should add that the realtor did nothing beyond listing the house on MLS. We wrote the description, showed the house and supplied the pictures. She sat on her ass and missed showings or cancelled last second.

Can my ex-wife sign a legal agreement to sell by owner her portion of the house to me? divorce agreement said to sell house and divide profit equally.

I signed a contract with a realtor to sell my house. I want to sell it by owner. How do I get out the contract?
