Wray, Robert F - For Sale By Owner Registry

With approximately 20 percent of the real estate marketplace comprised of for sale by owner listings, many homebuyers are left scratching their heads wondering, Do I need an agent to go ahead and buy that for sale by owner home? Not only are agents not needed to buy a home, involving one during a FSBO transaction could actually hinder the buying process, as the agent would want the seller and/or the buyer to commit to paying an expensive commission fee.
