How to sell a house for sale by owner?
We currently have our house listed through a real estate company. Our contract expires soon. We have possibly found a buyer for our house but they wont be able to move until october. How do we go about selling it ourselves? Do we hire a lawyer? We would be saving about 10,000 in realtor fees and would like to take a cheaper route to sell atm. Can someone provide a step by step process. about how much would it cost?
how much approximately is a lawyers fee for this?

Did you find this buyer yourself or is this someone who viewed the house while you were under this realtors contract? You might be asking for a heap of trouble (lawsuit) if this buyer was found and it can be proven while you had this realtor under contract.
Contact a local real estate attorney and ask them what they charge. My guess is you may have to come up with $2500 to 5k.
