sell it yourself, FSBO, hire attorney to help with paperwork, list on FSBO website, they often have fixed fee packages. have one price if buyer has no agent and another price 3% higher if they do have one so they are paying for their  own agent, like in other countries if market is good agent is not of much help, if market really bad agent is not of much help, Also act like every real estate agent does, in every academic residential RE study does with their own properties versus their fiducial clients, and list the property for more and list it for longer than they recommend to their clients.
