Jamila - it depends on your situation. Working with a hard working agent can result in you getting top dollar for you home. Having someone with boots on the ground is important!

Zillow offers is no more. They lost a ton of money and they closed up that side of Zillow. There are others like them, but you leave so much money on the table. A good agent can help you make so much more without all the hidden fees.
