Judah,

I'd give out copies of the "The Slight Edge".  Although somewhat repetitive, it makes the point that our results are in life are not the result of some big, single action, but from the tiny actions we take each day.

PS: Really appreciate your quote that knowledge isn't power, action is power.  Well said.

Rick, you said it was in the kitchen - is it in a location where you could possibly install in island or some type of storage space over the bad spots to cover them?

Just a thought.

@Kyle Penlamd - great to hear that you had success going that route.  It's very encouraging to hear your success story :)

@Renee Gambacorta - I'm pretty certain that I'd need to get on the MLS so that my listings can be pushed out to the typical sites. I found my last home on one of the sites so, in my experience, it makes sense to get listed that way. Can I ask if your flat fee MLS service a local one or one that might be able to service me as well? (Also, I checked out your site and love that Brazilian hardwood.)

Jennifer - thanks for the advice.   I think there are some attorney's in the area who specialize in RE and I can check with them.  Thanks again!

Brandon M - thank you for your comments.  In terms of how RE is traditionally done, I'm thinking that buyers agent does most of the "heavy" lifting and, really, they should probably get more of the deal than the sellers agent. The thing that I'm not certain about is whether I would be open to more liability as an FSBO seller than I would if I went the traditional route with a sellers agent??

Hi all,

I'm considering offering my home FSBO and have a couple of questions to those with experience going that route.

Is it helpful to offer an additional fee to potential buyer's agents (say $500 or $1000) to induce them to show the property?

Also, would I, as a home owner, have any additional liability exposure for selling FSBO vs going through an sellers agent? (I live in Ohio.)

Thanks in advance!
