Buying an house without a realtor

[Tal P.]

Hi,

I am trying to but house to live around Boston area and I'm not sure if I need a real estate agent for that. I don't have much experience but I did get a MA real estate licenses but I have never used that. I am trying to figure out how can I save the fee and do it myself. I'm not sure if this is bad idea but I have good amount of friends that told me that they wasted their time and money by using an agent when they bought an house while to sell one, you definitely need hire a professional.
