Realtors.
I don't know of a job more pointless. And I worked (reception) at a realty office and still didn't see the value.
Seems useful to me. If I'm selling my house I don't want to spend a bunch of my own time setting up all the showings and being there for each one. And if I have to trust someone else to do it, they should be licensed and trackable in case something goes wrong.
It does seem like a job that attracts lazy people though, and it also seems like there are way too many agents in general.
I just bought a house, and having someone to coordinate all the paperwork thoroughly and promptly was definitely valuable to me.
Realtors are fucking useless, they provide none of the information you actually need but you have to go through them to figure out what the deal is with a space.
