Getting a home on the MLS without a Realtor

Buyers, especially first time buyers, generally want some help on closing costs.

you can definitely get into the MLS without signing a sellers agent, but you're still likely to get dinged for 3% to the buyers agent (unless you get lucky and find someone looking on their own). here's a place to start http://www.listbyowneronmls.com/
 
Thanks guys - just testing the waters for now; this market sucks! I did find a place online that will put you on the MLS for like $300; not sure if that is legal or not in this state tho.

appreciate everyone's input!
