Answer 1

you could try FSBO.com and they specialize in flat fee owner-sellers. I sold my condo myself and paid a flat fee of 10k on a 385k condo. For your 260-270k place, maybe a $7500 fee would be fair, but FSBO may be able to beat that. Be advised, you will have to find your own buyer, and FSBO only makes sure everything is "legal". Finding the buyer is the tough part. Maybe a real estate attorney would be cheaper; thats another avenue for you to think about. You'd still have to find a buyer yourself, though. Good luck!
