Selling With a Real Estate Agent

This is usually the best option if your home is in great condition, you’re not in a rush, and you want top dollar. But it comes with time, preparation, and uncertainty:
  • Prepare the home for showings and inspections
  • Repairs, cleaning, staging, and possibly updates
  • Showings and open houses
  • Potential price reductions
  • Buyer financing delays
  • Inspection requests and repair negotiations
  • Agent commissions and closing costs
  • Typically 2–4 months before you see money

Selling Your Home Yourself (For Sale By Owner)

You avoid paying agent commissions, but you take on all the work yourself:
  • Marketing, showings, negotiations, contracts, and paperwork
  • Managing inspection, appraisal, and buyer financing issues
  • Time-consuming and demanding
  • Often sells for less due to limited exposure
