Realtors try to convince the public that only they can sell your home. I sold without a in 2004 with no problems at all. The key is to get a good real estate attorney for the contracts and closing. My attorney fees were $550- alot less than a realtor's commission and I believe he had more expertise than a realtor.
Signage, though quite fundamental in nature, plays an important role in the home selling process, the yard sign should be two-sided, easy to read, and look great. defaced or worm signs can negatively impact curb appeal.
