PRIVACY 101: How to get photos of your home off Zillow, Redfin and Realtor.com

You want to provide helpful information to attract buyers when selling your home. This includes photos, floor plans, furniture, appliances and more. But if you change your mind about selling, this information risks your privacy and can attract criminals. Getting your home information off the internet isn't easy, but here are ways to try.

Quick tip of the day

Wouldn’t it be nice to know how crowded an area is before going? You can with Google Maps. 

  • Just open the app and navigate to your destination. 
  • Zoom in or out until you see highlighted patches with a “busyness” indicator. It’ll say something like “Not busy,” “Busier than usual” or “As busy as it gets.”
  • Tapping on the Busy area label will bring up a chart that shows how busy the area is at different times of day, along with a directory of nearby restaurants, shops and recreational places. 

🕒 This is a really smart way to find the best time to stop by a store you’ve been meaning to check out. The busy indicators work for restaurants, too. Check out more Google Maps tricks.
