Sell with a Real Estate Agent

This is by far the most popular way to sell a home. Real Estate Agents sell around 90% of homes in the U.S. Hiring a real estate agent is the easiest way to sell your home. They will take care of the open houses, staging the home, advertising, and contracts.

Cons: The downside of selling a home through a real estate agent is that you must pay 3 to 6% in commission fees. Real Estate agents have a lot of resources to get your house sold fast especially in a stale economy. However, with a little bit of research you can save yourself that 3 to 6% by selling your own home.

Flat Fee Listing Service

By choosing this option, you can list your home on the multiple listing service (MLS) for $199-$599 for a sign and lockbox. This is a good solution if you are willing to do For Sale By Owner (FSBO) and get access to home buyers that are using Real Estate Agents.

Cons: You are responsible for fielding all calls, setting up open houses, showing your home, and creating the contracts. To ensure you covered everything in your contracts, you can pay an attorney to review the contracts used.

Sell with a Real Estate Agent - Pay set fee

You can use a Real Estate agent and pay them a set fee to list your home rather than a percentage. For example, the real estate agent would place your home on the MLS, set up four open houses, show your home to 15 possible buyers, two brokers opens, a sign, a lockbox, and place signs throughout your neighborhood all for one set price.

For Sale By Owner (FSBO)

This option can be done through FSBO websites, creating signs to place outside and on bulletin boards within stores, place advertisements in newspapers and other mediums such as Craigslist.

Rent your Home

You can also choose to rent your home through a rental agency or on your own.

Cons: You will be responsible for creating leasing contracts, advertise your rental property in local newspapers and other mediums. You will also be taking the risk of renting to individuals who can not pay their rent, or do not pay on time. They may also damage your property which will cause additional costs for you. You will also be responsible for maintenance repairs.
