house is worth approx $399 to 429K

(the area is rising approx 6% per annum)

and, it is the lowest priced home,
less than 1% fall into the $399-$429 range
approx 80% fall into 799-to $1.2 million area
and, the rest, are over 1.2 million

privately, what do i need to do ???

i have several people ready to offer !!!
thanks
If you don't need help marketing the property, then there is no reason to pay an agent a 6% fee (or whatever it is where you live).

I've done it both ways, and a good real estate attorney is all you need if you can find a buyer on your own. Good luck!
