This FSBO process is often criticized by many real estate agents and brokers because this process creates a parallel real estate network in which house owners are the real estate agents. Because of this reason, they don't even show houses that are being sold using "for sale by owner". The main reason for this s that they think they will have to do twice as much work. In many cases they are right. It is an excessive burden for the buyer's agent to have to hold the seller's hand and educate them through the selling process.

So if you want to sell your home through FSBO successfully, please take time and learn what you needed to know before even starting the selling process.
