Is selling your home without a Realtor actually saving you money, or could it end up costing you more?

On this episode of The Closing Table, Realtor Bobby Ray Bunch and mortgage lender Jared Nicolaisen break down the reality of For Sale By Owner (FSBO) transactions, what happens behind the scenes of real estate negotiations, and why having the right professionals involved can make a huge difference.

From a real estate closing that got delayed because a buyer legally changed their name to a three-day negotiation with a FSBO seller, we're sharing stories you don't hear every day.

In this episode, we cover:

• Why For Sale By Owner transactions can be more complicated than expected
• The biggest mistakes sellers make when pricing their homes
• How Realtors help navigate negotiations, inspections, and contracts
• Why saving on commission doesn't always mean saving money
• What happens when a buyer makes a sight-unseen offer
• Why shopping mortgage lenders can save you hundreds per month
• How to decide whether moving into a more expensive home is worth it

And because it's The Closing Table, we somehow end up debating whether adults should drink milk, putting ketchup on mac and cheese, and Bobby's completely legitimate 1,000 closings in a single day.

Whether you're buying, selling, or just curious about how real estate really works, this one's for you.
