Quote from SomeYoungGuy:
OK, at the risk of you all accusing me of backpeddling, I did say I would have a licensed professional on my side, not specifically a listing RE agent. An RE lawyer qualifies as such in my book. That's not going it alone.
My aunt and uncle sold their house in Cali right at the peak of the market to their neighbor, no need to list on MLS or show it, so they used a lawyer. I think it was $1000 and that's CHEAP peace of mind for a $600k transaction.
