Colleen - well you have certainly hit on some key issues non-represented sellers need to think about in this market. Going it alone can be a huge mistake, which is likely why most sellers decide to seek the advice and knowledge of a local REALTOR.Even if someone is determined to try and sell on their own, they should, as a first step, gather the information about the market and how an agent can help them before they make the final decision.
