I made a playlist of music to have going in the background for the inspection at our house today.  There could be something wrong with me.

But that brings me to a point: are we the only country in the world where real estate agents inspect rental properties?  Or are we just the only ones that completely trash our rentals whilst letting out the other half to fifty illegal immigrants, thus requiring someone to check on us like little children?  I’ve mentioned my inspection to two people in other countries recently and their reactions were identical.  “Inspection?  Huh?”

Why us?  Why me??  I am half-inflined to mention this fact to the real estate agent when she arrives (most likely about an hour after the stated time).

And because I’m curious about it, here’s a poll:
