I sold my house myself last year. I thought the realtors I spoke with were pricing it too low, so I advertised it myself (local newspapers and flyers at local grocery stores, etc) and got the right offer within 2 weeks. No realtors on either side, closing went smoothly and I saved myself about 20K. Definitely worth the time and effort.

If you are interested in a specific house, it might be difficult to get around a realtor. But you should be able to find plenty of options if you look in local papers for FSBO ads, and also drive around the neighborhoods you are interested in looking for signs. Have you tried this yet?
