For Sale by Owner (Listing Service)
With approximately 20 percent of the real estate marketplace comprised of “for sale by owner” listings, many homebuyers are left scratching their heads wondering, “Do I need an agent to go ahead and buy that “for sale by owner” home?” Not only are agents not needed to buy a home, involving one during a FSBO transaction could actually hinder the buying process, as the agent would want the seller and/or the buyer to commit to paying an expensive commission fee.
