You can—but it’s not always as simple as it sounds. I’m Dennis Loewen with North and Main Homes, and here’s the real cost of going it alone versus hiring an expert.
FSBO Reality Check
For Sale By Owner (FSBO) sellers handle pricing, marketing, and negotiation themselves. The challenge? Exposure. Homes listed with agents often sell 5–10% higher, meaning going solo could cost you more than you save.
The Hidden Workload
Without MLS access or a comprehensive marketing plan, your property might miss serious buyers. California legal disclosures are detailed—mistakes can delay closing or even create liability issues.
Hybrid Options
Partial services—like transaction coordination, pricing consultation, or marketing support—can help. But full representation often delivers higher net results and a smoother process.
