it's not that hard
do you researc hto see what you must have for the sale
to cover yourself legally
make sure you have full disclosure
you'll still need to deal with an escrow company and a title company for a fee of course
better read up on contract, get some copies of contract ( for home buying ) and read everything you can to cover yourself
good luck, it can be done

It's not that hard. Get the book "for sale by owner" at the library. Basically once you have a buyer, you agree on a price, take a deposit check, and go to an escrow company. They will tell you exactly what neds to be done from there.
The hard part , depending on where you are, is finding that buyer and negotiating the price.
Go to zillow.com to find out for free what your condo is worth approximately. Make a ton of flyers with all pertinent info on it. For a small fee you can get it posted on the MLS.
You may also want to consider paying 3% to the buying agent so agents will bring people by. you still save the 3% on your side.
Good luck

When you sell your house on your own, you should know that most realtors think of a cheap house. They figure since you are only really paying 50% of the comission you normally would, that second 50% is room to negotiate the price lower.
And its more work for them so they may not want to even show it to their clients if it's listed in the MLS.

Forget real estate brokers.....The Internet is going to put them
out of business eventually.
Go to http://realestate.yahoo.com/Homevalues and type in
your address and submit. You will get an instant value along
with that of comparable housing in your area. The values of the other homes are compiled from public infomation sources. Add
10-15% for negotiating room and place an ad in your local newspaper under Houses For Sale.

Vegoren1,
Everybody has to earn a living.
A good real estate agent, on the
long run, will be your best bet.
They will do all the work they
know how to do and have worked
years and years to perfect.
Again, most are professionals
and that's how they bring home
the bacon.
Good luck!

After you get the documentation in place to cover yourself legally, focus on getting as much exposure to your property as possible. Advertise in print, online, through signs, postings at your local grocery store, curch, local apartment complexes, and any other local public place.

you does no longer violate the contract with the aid of offering extra sources of promoting, despite if it may be clever to ascertain with the actual sources agent in touch to insure that your promoting format does not violate any codes of ethics required with the aid of the contract. Have the agent approve the advert(s) in writing in the previous you do something.
