What's the pros vs cons to selling by owner vs by real estate agent? We are going to be looking into either renting our house out or selling it (most likely selling it as good renters are so hard to come by) but we need to make at least a little profit. We've only owned the house for just under 2 years so we don't know what is the best thing to do. There's lots of research to do. If anyone can add any tips that might be helpful in selling, please feel free to chime in. Thanks.
