I sold my house almost ten years ago. Realtors so not like fsbos. Why does that matter, the MLS listing that everyone uses is geared predominantly for still service realtors. Your first move is to get your house listed on MLS. When you go with one of the discount brokers that list your house for like a $500 fee and then manage the listing per your wishes e.g. adding pictures, 360 video, price changes of it stays on the market, etc. What is not said is fsbo is discriminated against by realtors. I won't get into the details but suffice it to say, most of the large realtors have grudges. Another key issue is the face that you will not have a"full service" broker so your listing will not show up on all MLS searches, depending on the broker. Reality executives and shore West both excluded them on their searches. In the end my house sold but, for less than I wanted and after multiple price drops to play the game.
