Because this will be my 1st investment property, I'm trying to be cautious but at the same time eager to start investing and get some exposure.

Little bit of thought has to go into these things up front.. and well I hate paying for this insurance but when you have 25 million of exposure  whats 110k really.. and of course this is why you have no affordable housing we just pack it into the sales price..  

Zillow, FSBO, Open Door...etc will never beat great marketing, great negotiations and exposure to all the buyers and realtors in the market. 

To be more specific, i am looking for ways to increase exposure for turkey property sales. 

This was on loopnet so max exposure. 

@Alan J Mowder Don't forget about the middle ground between FSBO and Agent - that being "Flat Fee MLS", where you get the benefits of listing on the MLS (exposure, offer commission to buyer agents, etc) without the big listing fee that comes with a traditional agent.

My exposure to investment real estate is through REIT's (both public and private) because I live in the NYC area and don't want to spend a gazillion dollars on a building that's going to at best, produce paltry cash flow nor do I want to deal with laws that are far too in favor of the tenant.

Unlicensed brokers CANNOT get the exposure a MLS listing does. 

It's funny - as a realtor, I know intellectually that I will get a better price at the end by pricing low and getting maximum exposure, but when I sell my own homes, I have all this anxiety that it will sell for that lower price. 

I would work on it for the next few months and then list it so that it will close after you have owned it for one year or more.If you sell it after owning it for less than a year you will pay the higher short term capitol gains instead of the long term capitol gains.Listing it on the mls, with an open listing will get you the most exposure and best price.
