Real estate agents
Privacy for realtors, who are required to be findable
Your job requires your face, name and phone number to be public, and involves meeting strangers alone in empty houses. Agents have been assaulted at showings. The professional exposure is necessary; the home address exposure is not.

What's different for you
Why the generic advice doesn't fit
Most privacy guidance is written for someone with no particular threat. Yours is specific, so the priorities change.
- You cannot and should not go dark professionally — the goal is separating the professional identity from the home one.
- Your licence is public. Brokerage directories and listing sites republish it.
- A published home address is the specific thing to eliminate.
Do this in order
- 01Make sure your licence and every directory list a brokerage address, not your home.
- 02All free people-search sites.
- 03Property records for your own home, and consider entity ownership going forward.
- 04A business number that is not your personal mobile.

The sites to take down first
Free and unpaywalled, which means anyone can use them with no account and no skill. These are the real risk.
