Default Re: selling a house privately/or using an agent ???

I've sold several properties all on my own, no agent, no attorney, no notary except at the Title company for closing documents. The Title companies will notarize any closing document which needs notarization. And I've also hired an attorney to look over my papers on one specific large sale I did. Paid by the hour.

But I also have had training in real estate, took classes at a college.

There are books out there on how to sell your own home, I think Nolo is one. They do it specifically by state, including forms.

One of the most important parts is doing proper disclosure documents, having the buyers sign.

If you don't know all of this, you're going to need help somewhere. There are some good real estate forums elsewhere.. Here is not where you'll get good real estate help/advise.
