FSBOs or “For Sale By Owner” homes attract a certain kind of attention from real estate agents, namely barrage of phone calls asking for their listing once they (oh, so certainly) fail at the endeavor and concede the need to list with an agent.

Not all those million agents are serious pros. It’s relatively easy to get into the real estate business but it is tough to make a good living there. Some people just dabble in real estate and some inexperienced agents get precious little handholding from their brokers.

Your contract with a buyer’s agent will usually stipulate that the agent’s commissions – typically about 3 percent – be paid out of the seller’s proceeds at closing. Does that mean the seller pays?

Talk to your Cooperative Extension Service or local nursery and garden center about the best grass or combination of grasses for your lawn.
