While it may be tempting to avoid realtor fees and handle things on your own, having a professional by your side versus some newly licensed realtor learning "the ropes" can make the process go more smoothly and provide valuable insight into what's likely one of the biggest purchases of your life.

"Don't try to buy or sell a house with out working with a seasoned realtor. Okay, that's it," real estate expert and host of NBC's "Extra's Mansions & Millionaires!" writes in his book Before You Buy!
