Apartment search is very clearly a pain. In Amsterdam, people look on 4-5 different crappy websites to find a an apartment to rent. It's incredibly frustrating and time-consuming. I also hate to give a thousand euros (or more) as a fee to an agent just because they list a house. That's a classic example of information asymetry problem. Lowering the bar for homeowners to put an ad online and better matching owners-tenants would work wonders.
