My buyer contacted me and requested the listing agents contact to remove all pics information on the sales of his home from the interent fishbowl. The list agent did a great job but reality it is almost impossible to do. Once the pics and listing go viral it is like a huge machine tracking the house all over the world. The address, pictures, sold price have all become "public information". The buyer has even threatened a lawsuit on the list agent if all is not removed.
So the reality is Big Brother is watching all of us and once on the internet is it impossible to remove all pics and information? Is this the next big lawsuit for lawyers to sink thier greedy teeth into? Are we as listing/selling agents going to be required to carry additional insurance or will there be another disclosure for buyers to sign? By the way your house location, sales price, sf is all over the internet and all your freinds and family will know the smallest details of your home and how much your loan is!
With the internet, google earth we know everything about YOU! Privacy was something in the past and no longer exists period!
