If you’re thinking about selling your house as a “for sale by owner,” you may not know what you’re getting yourself into. Three problems you will have, that you may not even know about include lack of exposure, unqualified buyers and security concerns.

Why do 80% of the for sale by owners out there wind up signing with a real estate agent within the first 30 days? Or maybe a better question is why do 90% of the real estate agents out there get out of the business completely in the first two years?

It might be because selling a house may not be as easy as it looks.
