Do I have to pay estate agent fees if I sell privately in Selkirk?
If you sell your Selkirk home entirely privately with no agent involved, there's no agent fee to pay. However, most Selkirk agents operate on a 'sole agency' or 'multi-agency' contract — and if a buyer originally introduced by the agent completes, the fee is still due even if you handle the final negotiation yourself. Always check the contract before signing. Compare committed-fee Selkirk agents on AgentSeeker. committed-fee Selkirk agents.
