Has anyone sold/tried selling a house privately without an agent here? I've never sold a house before, but I'm considering selling privately which should save me anywhere up to $25G.

I have a few concerns....1) how to do it, I know there are a number of websites that help you do this including listing on the MLS, total cost is around $5-700 I believe 2) lawyers, legal side of the transaction 3) real estate agents will ignore my listing and won't refer any clients OR steer them away from my home...just because 4) there are agents out there who charge much less than the 5% average rate(here)

Thoughts? advice?
