Virtual tours are another one of those double edged swords. They may attract more homebuyers to tour a listed property. Also, virtual tours help buyers and sellers to determine a house’s value compared to other listings. On the other hand, that info remains online for a LONG time.
So whatcha gonna do? Contact Zillow and demand that they delete the VT of the house you bought?? Good luck with that. 😉 Buy from a FSBO who was too cheap to pay for a VT? That will reduce your potential buying choices by approximately 90%. If you’re willing to live with that, go for it.
The only consolation is that the VT shows the personal property that belonged to the previous seller, not yours. So the would be burglar gets no information about what kind of stuff you have that may be worth stealing.
