List with an agent
Ask whether the house can be marketed as it stands or whether selected work would make sense for your plans. Compare repair and cleanout estimates, preparation and showings, the costs in your listing agreement, and bills you may carry while it is for sale.
Sell it yourself
Selling without an agent puts marketing, buyer questions, showings, price discussions, and sale coordination in your hands. Include the time and any professional support you choose when comparing it with a listing or direct offer.

For a question about a Glens Falls property, start with the City’s Building & Codes page. Warren County’s Fire Prevention & Building Code Enforcement page expressly excludes the City. These are local contact routes; they do not establish what applies to a particular house.
Which costs and complications should you compare?

When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs.
