Bargain Hunting
In this world of "save a buck," people want a BARGAIN! That's fine - so long as saving money is really what it appears to be. I suppose the question is "What do you call a bargain?"
If your opinion of "bargain" is doing the work yourself, having to worry about the authenticity of buyers, the legal issues surrounding transfer of property, getting major headaches because of comments made about the home you've lived in and loved for so long, then when you pay little or nothing to another person or a sign company, you're getting a "bargain."
However, if your idea of "bargain" is paying a reasonable fee to have a trained professional perform the duties that will sell your home, protect your rights and give you peace of mind, you are also getting a "bargain."
I suppose a person needs to define "bargain," then find the right place to get one. Before you list your home, be sure you know that "you get what you pay for!" Protect yourself - you'll be glad you did.
