Direct communication with buyers can lead to quicker negotiations, and your personal investment in the property can be persuasive. However, there are significant drawbacks. Without an agent, your home may have limited market exposure, and you’ll need to handle all marketing, which can be time-consuming and challenging. Pricing the property correctly and navigating negotiations without professional expertise can be difficult. Legal risks are higher as well, given the complexity of real estate transactions and compliance with disclosure laws. Lastly, emotional attachment to the home can cloud your judgment during negotiations.
