It is nice to see millennials re-discovering how pretty much everything was done before the explosion of the internet in the mid-90s.
Historically, what this article describes, was simply called "finding somewhere to live". There was no necessity to invoke warfare when looking for a house. One simply drove around the neighborhood looking for for-sale or for-rent signs.
Amazing that now just doing something in the real world is cause for excitement! But I'm sincerely happy to see a re-emergence of the practice.
BTW, I hope the author appreciates living in a place where "there are almost no real estate agents" along with the other described traits. Escaping the commodification of everything is more difficult every year, and you have to get pretty far from the epicenters to find it at all.
