Advice: I'm trying to do a FSBO in Monterey County, Ca.

Hi All, Although I eventually plan to be much more involved as a real estate investor, my immediate need is for some advice on selling my home quickly FSBO and maximizing profit without paying a 5% commission (amounts to about $25,000 in my case). I have recently listed my home on Zillow for 510k (about 5k below market value) in Prunedale, Ca. (about 1 hour south of San Jose, Ca). I have had a lot of interest from buyers and real estate agents (who balk at my offer to give a 2% commission if they bring in buyer and handle closing process) who are planning to attend the showing, and I believe the level of interest is due to the fact that it is the lowest priced home in the area on the market now given the square footage and lot size. Because I am out of state, I am doing one showing next weekend and am betting this will generate at least one offer. If it does, what should be my next steps? Thanks!
