It's OK to Educate Yourself. But Unless You Buy and Sell Real Estate for a Living, It's Best to Work With a Professional. So you're ready to buy a new home. Or maybe you're ready to sell your present home. Whichever the case, if you don't buy and sell Real Estate for a living, or you stayed at a Holiday Inn Express last night, it's probably best to hire a professional. I'm all about do-it-yourself for small projects, but a home is most likely the biggest investment you'll ever have. Why take a chance on making a mistake?
