If the seller, for example, does not have a listing agent; he is representing himself by default. If the buyer does not engage the services of a real estate agent, by default, he is representing himself. The seller would be a FSBO, or For Sale by Owner. The Buyer would be self-represented.

The downside for either party not having representation is that a real estate transaction is usually the most expensive purchase people make in their lifetime. There are many things that can go wrong and errors can be very expensive.
