Our real estate team works closely with homeowners to get their homes SOLD, not just listed. We encourage our sellers to market the property additionally and actually offer a "break" in fees if and when they bring the buyer on their listing. We sell 100's of homes here in Corinth, TX and find that pro-active teamwork paired with focused marketing gets homes sold. Good Luck and feel free to check out our website!

Bruce nailed it, the more people that know your house is for sale the better your odds get. I live in Corinth have a home listed in Kensington Estates at 249,900 and have been showing all around this price range. Also have a client looking around 200 in Corinth too. If your house is currently listed for sale with a Broker you could post the mls# that way the local agents get to look it up and see if it fits a clients needs. Exposure is key in this market. Loads of inventory.

This is in no way intended to solicit the offerings of another Broker.

I think you should discuss with your agent. I typically don't see a problem with this and often ask the owner to assist with the sale. I email them the flyer for the property and ask that they distribute it to their email list. I also ask them to take it to their work, HR dept, etc to distribute. You might be able to put up and take down directionals to your property easier than the agent can on the weekends.

I agree with Jeff about asking your agent. You should have a good enough relationship with your Realtor, to know exactly what their responsibilities are going to be in the transaction. THAT is what you hired them for.
If you don't feel they are advertising in the appropriate media, suggest that they do.

If you have an open listing with a realtor where "whoever sells the house first" where you don't have to pay realtors fees, however I would not recommend ever a buyer owner situation for you can be sued vs. a realtor errors & ommission insurance you fall under the agent e & o policy. There are State laws that mussssstttttttt be followed by all parties whether be for sale by owner OR a real estate agent. If you have a realtor they also know effective marketing that can assist you. I encourage my sellers to go and tell the world their house is on the market although we agressively market your house. If you are trying to save money on real estate agent fees you might consider a Seller Flat Fee MLS listing we do that for a flat rate of $795 for a listing agent fees that is all. therefore this option saves you $1000's at closing we post to MLS, Realtor.com, blogs, other listing websites to bring in buyers for your property. If we can be of any further assistance contact our office.

I would ask your agent. In the agreement it should state what the commission will be if you find the buyer yourself. I guess if you are just trying to help the agent sell your home, even better. What are your goals by advertising yourself? Just to sell the home faster. I would say yes, but, of coarse please check with your agent first.
