We sold our log home and 5 acres off of a Zillow listing and did it for sale by owner. The realtors want to know if you are willing to pay a commission if they bring you a buyer- “No!” One realtor told me well good luck selling it. I told her ma’am I already have a contract on it for over asking price. We sold it ourselves for more than asking price and we took our own pictures. The only money we spent was on some for sale by owner signs that we put out. I would at least try it out to start. That’s what we did as we had a realtor friend who was going to list it for us for a cheap percentage if we couldn’t sell it. We did it ourselves with the only listing’s were Zillow and FB marketplace. Good Luck!Last edited by parkchief100; 01-20-2020, 06:25 PM.

Admittedly it depends on circumstance. Realtors certainly have a place. In my situation, it was low inventory and high demand. I knew within reason I could get it sold in a month. Got lucky and it only took 2 days.
If you know your market, go for it!
If you are worried about it, realtor may be a good fit.

Drone- Good idea for outside.
Get someone that can build a 3D "Walkthrough" with very good pictures. This is where you basically walk around the home by clicking to move and then at every click is a 360 degree picture.
Do lots of research on your market and even have realtors price it.
List on all the MLS websites.
IF you don't leave any money on the table, saving 3% on a realtor with your house WILL go a LONG way into your boat.

3-minute drone is too long, BUT, drone footage is a good thing. I use professional photography and depending on house, a drone. And depending on house, we hire somebody to stage an empty house, or use a virtual tour and the professional will cirtually add furniture to rooms.
I will say that some are apt at doing a FSBO, but not all. I had a house listed late last year, but client wanted it listed at 260k+, which was way over what I told him we could get, my suggestion was 235k. Sat on market for 3-months and he turned down several offers in the 230k range. I finally suggested we terminate the listing agreement, after he daily complained it was selling. He called me yesterday, desperate to sell and asked if I knew anybody that would give him 170k just so he could dump it.
So be sure to price it right. Good luck....

Just FYI, and do what you want, but I do know that to use a drone for commercial purposes, well just check regulations and such to be legal.
