Your House on Zillow, Homes.com, etc

[Jules]

Do you feel vulnerable having information about your home available on sites like Zillow, Homes.com, Remax, or anything similar. Anyone can look at these, including the bad guys.

If you have valuables visible, they could be targeted. They have the layout, the windows, a security system. Today I picked a couple at random and could see the door locks, nice art, signs that owners are elderly. The value of your home is there and some have your mortgage.

I read that on some home sale sites they can change the photos so it’s not really the interior of your house. If possible, I’ll want to do this when it’s time to list our home.

Vulnerable? Not in the least.
The exterior photo taken from the street doesn't give anyone much to go on... and that is all there is.

No. Sheriff and the Good Lord willing, this small farm won’t be up for sale until after I’m gone. Which means my brother will have already cleaned this place out.

I don’t have anything valuable to most of the world anyway. all of my money is tied up in horse stuff, that most of the world would have no idea what its use was unless they own a horse.
