Well the key to a Comfree sale like KC mentions is that you want to price your house so that it's still attractive to comfree buyers (I can't decide if these are schrewd people trying to skirt paying commission and looking for deals....or people who just don't know better and feel they don't need a realtor). But you do want to make back some of the money you'd normally pay for commission. In the area where I live there have been 3 places on my street go up for sale in the last year with a realtor and the longest time that anyone of those was on the market was 12 days until the Sold sign showed up (so that means they probably had an accepted sale within 5-7 days as they don't put the sold sign on until everythings finalized). Theres also been places in the cul-de-sac opposite of mine with similar things where nothing is on the market for two weeks before it sells. Theres also a town house complex behind me that's been moving places pretty quick two, and a couple of those have moved with Comfree. Right now there are two places within a stone throw from my house and like I mentioned above both are severely overpriced for what the market bears today in my opinion and are simply people trying to make an exhorbitant profit (hence why the one place has been on the market for 50 days despite claiming the vendor is a motivated seller).

If I was to list with a realtor today I'm fairly confident the place would be sold within a couple of weeks. But I don't need to move in two weeks, I can wait 4-5 months if that's what it takes. I also think that come May-June is likely when the market will see more action than is currently there. If I wanted the place sold in 2 weeks no doubt I'd pick a realtor. But I have the ability to pick and choose and thats why I'm thinking of trying to save myself a few dollars.
