I feel your pain. agree MLS not helpful right now, as in most communities, you are just seeing the stuff that isn't selling as opposed to what sold
we just sold, and used a realtor, in part b/c we wanted confirmation about what comparable places actually SOLD for RECENTLY
like you, we weren't flippers, and like you we wanted a painless deal, as frequent showings would be murder on us. at the same time we needed to get good value out of the house
we sold quickly, and its possible we left a tiny bit of $$ on the table, but the piece of mind was worth it. there is a lot of stale stuff in our neighbourhood, despite it being v desireable, mostly b/c people are wacky on their prices/expectations right now
