TIPS for FSBO or Selling with Redfin?

Hi All, 

Looking for some advice and tips regarding selling my Twin Cities, MN home without a realtor. I live in a townhome in a desirable neighborhood so I am not too worried about demand. 

I see redfin has a 1.5% listing fee - has anyone done this before?

Any other tips or advice with selling your home FSBO?


Thanks!

@Sean Sloop the catch must be that it is 1.5% for the listing, but you still need the commission for the buyers agent so add on the typical 2.7-3% buyer’s commission and they are at 4.2%-4.5%. We do that all the time.

When anyone puts a property on the MLS you need to disclose the amount that will be paid to the buyer's agent. Keeps everything above board.
