I could have gotten access to all the required apartment paperwork, cleaned and taken the photos, written up an advertisement, answered the calls & emails, set up the showings, negotiated with people, figured out the bank paper work, and finalized the sale all by myself.
Just like I could have cooked instead of ordering food someone else made for me, or not have my new washing machine delivered, carried inside and installed, and instead spend an evening doing it all myself.

But I'd really rather not, I'll pay someone else to do those things, and spend my time doing something I actually find fun. But yeah, I guess they are all exploiting my laziness and unwillingness to do these things myself.
