I'm not sure what the market is like in St. Albert, but when it's hot the non-commision sites do work.

However when there's a lull in the market- like the one we are coming out of in Calgary, they can cause more hassle then they are worth. My neighbours were on Welist for 6 months; as of 2 months ago they had only 2 showings. Last week they went with a realtor, and within 6 days they have a "conditionally sold" sign out.

Also, as somebody who recently bought as a first time home buyer; I wouldn't have done it without a realtor. You may need to decide if your house is the time a 1st time buyer might buy, and make up your mind if you want to risk losing that business.
