FSBO now days are harder than ever for some key reasons. One reason bieng exposure on listings. Most buyer use a realtor to find a home for many reasons to include: Acess to all homes in local MLS, have relationships with professionals in the industry, acess to Bank owned homes, and much more. The market over last year and escpecially over last 90 days has changed so fast that the person with the most knowledge wins. Most realtors are aware of the changes in policy with loans,grant programs and other benifits to the consumer. So the average home buyer who needs the professional services that are FREE will consult a realtor. We are now in what we call a Buyers Market.
Advice
I would get a realtor to work with you on the sell of your home. I would get one that is an expert in the field. I would make sure they are Full Time and are currently working with buyers and sellers, this shows that they are busy and productive and effective. I would not choose my realtor based on commisions and listing price is my other free advice. If you choose it on that you are setting yourself up to fail. Choose an agent based on merits and sucess.
Good luck
