Should I sell my own property?

In this article, the author discusses the pros and cons of selling your own property without the assistance of a real estate agent. While not paying commission to an agent may seem like a good way to save money, the author notes that there are many tasks and responsibilities that come with selling a property that can be time-consuming and require specialized knowledge of the real estate market. Additionally, FSBO properties often sell for less than those sold with an agent, as agents have a strong network and marketing plan to leverage multiple offers against each other. The author emphasizes the importance of marketing and understanding the real estate market, and notes that working with a good agent can ultimately pay off in the form of a higher sale price. The author recommends meeting with a few agents to find the right one, rather than going with someone offering discounted commission.
