I have found that the realtor often winds up putting on the web for all local realtors to help sell it and split the fee. It’s rural MLS.
I have also been made aware that the traditional 6% may be negotiable. Try it. Think about it and call various local realtors and negotiate. They are often on the lookout for opportunities from investors that results in a quick transaction. If they don’t get the listing opportunity, they lose at least half the fee.
Some years back I bought 60 acres next to mine. I kept it 5 or 6 years and then decided to sell. I called a realtor that I had met. It sold quickly, by him, and he charged me 4.5%.
