I'm looking up at one right now and really, really, don't feel like getting out a ladder and ending up with a ton of dust in my hair and all over my living room....sigh. 

You can cut your own hair, but you'll probably have less success in the dating world.Agents probably still sell 95-98% of the real estate.Plenty of people think they're experts that go at it alone, but there is plenty of value using a realtor. 

People are so well off as “poor” they sell their food stamps, section 8 while spending 300$ a month on hair and nails.

You could comb through each lease and make sure no one has broken any of the terms.

Also, be sure to have multiple car dash cams, and ring cameras in every room.Don't ever go in the same room alone, never close the front door or any door in the house, never look her in eye, for goodness sake never make any comments about her clothers, hair, appearance......depending on what specific things listed above, you think are a joke or good common sense, will determine your level of neuroticism about the topic and should probably let you know if you have right mind set for the leasing agent job...jus sayin

@Carl Fischer - thank you for the mention@Katie Lepore - Section 199A most likely will not apply to casual landlords@Michelle Eisenberg - H&RB are just like any chain business: auto shops, hair salons, large clinics etc.

as well as their computers, hair dryers, dishwasher..

motivate' seminar attendees to "be their own boss", "escape the rat race", and "take control of their life" (with requisite slideshow of people enjoying leisure activities that YOU TOO can enjoy) all while belittling those who (ironically) choose the path of fiscal responsibility.Do they parade cardboard cutouts of the pretty faces from the teevee shows on the stage while the excessively tanned guy with pretty hair does his best Glengarry Glen Ross and tells you what a loser you are if you don't fork over the 40k?

Ok, this is going to be a hair off topic here but I will try to equip with the short-short version (crash course). 

No matter what, you will have to buy special products or pay for a professional service to get the smell/hair out of the unit when you go to turn it.
