Home Buying questions

[Dantrag]

I'm looking at a house that I'm interested in but I have a few questions:

1) Is there anything different that you have to do when purchasing a home directly from the buyer with no Realtor involved?

2) Is there a website I can go to to compare recent sold houses within are certain area of that house?

Thanks!

There's always a realtor, if nothing else, you're acting as your own and the seller is acting as their own. 6% still gets split between you two. As for anything different, yes. You do everything you otherwise wouldn't have had to do if you had an actual realtor.

Zillow.com

Redfin.com is a good one.

I like looking at the property cards/sale databases on the county's page. Of course each county has their own way of doing things and some might be better than others.
