To a certain extent, the notion may be driven by tough economic times. With equity evaporating in many markets, it might be a necessity for some sellers to go the DIY route. It is a question brought about by the perception of high cost for very little real work and a nagging sense that, hey, maybe I could do that.
Maybe you can. Maybe you shouldn’t.
The market, motivation, familiarity with the process, knowledge of real estate law, disposition, time, and resources should all be considered before you begin the process of selling your own home.
The Market
They don’t call them buyers and sellers markets for nothing, and, to a large extent, market conditions are often mostly local. A gripping nationwide recession, industry-wide job losses, and lenders’ unwillingness to lend, tend to have nationwide implications. But, even at the darkest of times, there are pockets of prosperity where demand for housing is high. In most cases, even if you over or under estimate the price, the market will eventually catch up to you.
