#12In italy the real estate agent can be sidestepped if you know directly the seller, as a consequence the ads they put up are comically balanced to trigger your curiosity but not too much revealing to let you figure out where the place is. Such a terrible experience as a buyer, i’m baffled this whole charade hasn’t been disrupted by tech already.
This is IMO a good example of a situation where tech or lack of it isn't the problem.

The title is ambiguous; you could read it as "photos taken by terrible real estate agents".

#14About 10 years ago, me and my wife took LSD on a vacation, and the sheer uselessness of a real estate agent appeared to us. What does a real estate agent do? They unlock doors. Who are real estate agents? We can all think of a few real estate agents, none of them are top performers. They are usually on their ~4th career before the age of 30. They are the type of person to wear a suit in public to pretend that it make…
I had a client who only sold 5million$+ estates and I went with them a few times on showings and I bought quite a few houses myself in the 5-20k range. The effort made by the estate agent was the same; close to nothing. I don’t know what’s wrong with these people and they definitely don’t deserve the commission. But when I ask just give me the location and the keys, they don’t do that. So totally useless and yet they want to come with you.

#15Why does Sartre's "No Exit" haunted by "Hotel California" as Muzak come to mind when looking at these images?

#16An acquaintance of mine is an FBI investigator and moonlights as a higher-grade Realtor.
He would use the same memory card and high end camera both during "stakeouts" for surveillance photos as well as listing photos for the homes he was selling.
One day he uploaded the entire contents of the memory card to the MLS on one of his public listings, surveillance photos and all. I'm pretty sure everything was up for a few days before being cleaned up.
It's been years but I still haven't made up my mind on whether that makes him a worse agent of law enforcement or real estate.

Yes, just hand the keys to someone's home to a complete stranger, what could possibly go wrong.

At some point you would have to actually visit the property, though? Couldn't you sidestep the real estate agent anyways?
