Don’t let everyone see pictures of your home! Real estate sites often show images that reveal far more than you realize.
Be Safe!
Real estate companies post images of your property, the inside of your house, and sometimes even your floorplans. This puts your privacy—and your security—at risk.
Why Residential Data is a Risk
If you’re not actively selling your home, why should detailed photos and layouts of your property remain online?
The reality is, this data only benefits:
Zillow
Realtor.com
Redfin
Meanwhile, it exposes you to threats. Criminals, scammers, and even stalkers can use these images and floorplans to learn sensitive details about your home.
What You Can Remove
Real estate sites may host:
Exterior and interior photos
Detailed property descriptions
Floorplans and layouts
Property records and historical sales data
All of these can be exploited by bad actors to target you or your family.
How to Reclaim Your Privacy
You have the right to request removal of residential data from real estate platforms. By taking action, you can:
Delete photos of your property
Remove floorplans and layouts
Limit the amount of personal detail available about your home
Taking these steps reduces your exposure and gives you back control over what’s shared publicly.
Don’t Be a Statistic
Attackers will use this information against you if it remains online. Protect your home, your family, and your privacy.
