My open-ended advice to the OP or whoever would be to leave all the options on the table. Yes paying fees sucks, but it may or may not be in your best interest. Talk to some agents, than talk to some people who have hired that agent and get a figure that said agent would see as realistic target price point for your property. Look those agents up online.
If I have that much money on the line, I'd absolutely be completely exhausting every possible avenue to where I at least could say to myself that I did everything I could in the situation. I'm honest here when I say if I am not completely satisfied, I'd fire the **** out of whoever agent. I evaluate people working for me very strongly and am anything but scared to make a change.
I'm not a super genius or anything close to that, but I'm just naturally apprehensive in nature and I always evaluate everything to death and while it's helpful it can also be a curse.
