I have a buyer on my FSBO, which required marketing. You don't have your location listed, but these things can vary by state. You DO NOT have to have a real estate agent involved, as their job and purpose is to find buyers for houses. You have that.
Who you need to talk to first is a title company. If you have a friend who did a FSBO in your area, ask them who they used, and if they were satisfied. If not, start calling title companies, tell them what you need done, and ask how much they charge, and what is needed to satisfy local requirements. Some areas require real estate attorneys, some do not. A title company will know what you need. They can also provide the forms you will need to draw up a contract between yourself and the buyer.
Typically, as a seller, you will be paying for the title insurance commitment, owner's title insurance policy, the sellers documents recording, half the settlement agent fee, and half the document prep. The rest is on the buyer, much of which is related to the loan.
