is there any obligation to sell if you home is listed for sale?

I have my home listed as being for sale on Zillow.
There is no obligation to accept an offer at the asking price is there? I mean a zillow listing is not a legally binding contract is it?

Probably not, however, if you accept an offer, the buyer could force you to complete the transaction.

No.Even if you were in contract with an agent, you don't have to accept any offer presented, and the list price is always negotiable. In fact being under contract doesn't mean that you can't fire your agent if your not happy with him or her at any time. So, no, you're not obligated to do anything. Its' your property.

By listing your home for sale here (or anywhere) you are offering your home for sale. You are not obligated to agree to sell your home to anyone, if you so choose. Just remember, once you sign a purchase agreement, you have entered a legally binding agreement. So if you don't want to sell, why not take your home off the market?
