 Trying to sell your home on your own to save on the commission can cost you more in the long run than you might expect. Everyone thinks it's a 1,2,3  and PRESTO your home is sold.. Well if it were that easy the every state wouldn't have issue out Realtor Licenses to those who meet their requirements to be a realtor. There are rules and guidelines that are in place to help realtors to help you to get the home sold efficiently, tirelessly and correctly.
