After the Rehab how do I list?

Is it customary to list with an agent after you rehab or is it more common to sell by owner?

It depends. Is the market where you are hot? If you have some experience with negotiating forms and the market is really moving, find a flat fee realty company that puts your home in the MLS and you do everything else. You still pay a buyer's agent, but you will get more exposure for the home. (Yes, this is a real estate agent saying this). If you can afford the time it takes to do it yourself, this isn't a bad option.

I only recommend this if you are experienced enough to protect your own interests in the transaction with knowledge of the forms and the process.

If the market is not moving quickly, you definitely need an agent.
