FSBOs doing better than Realtors!

Here's an article that just popped up on CNN's Money site.  I'm sharing it to get insight from everyone. 

http://money.cnn.com/2007/06/08/real_estate/home_selling/index.htm?postversion=2007060814

I'm not surprised that this has happened given that each market is different.  I'm just concerned that a lot of people are going to read it and think that they can now do it on their own.  As we all know, those who put in the time and have the right resources are able to sell on their own.  But the vast majority do not have the time and/or don't understand the ins and outs enough to sell quickly.  I don't know that specific market but perhaps a 7-year study could benefit FSBO stats if a sellers' market were in effect for part of that time. 

Is this article going to promote false hope?
