For all of you US homeowners, Redfin is now posting the name and mortgage info of homeowners on house listings. I find that in my region (Pacific Northwest), it seems to be county specific and primarily on homes sold in the last ~3 years that were previously listed on Redfin. It’ll be posted below tax history and before property details. This is obviously publicly available data, but I think I speak for pretty much all of us when I say that I don’t think its right for Redfin to so casually post this information. Below is a random house from my region that I saw on Redfin which had the ownership info listed.
All the more reason to place your home into a trust if you can. I didn’t do that when I bought my house but this definitely put a fire under my butt to get the ball rolling on doing that.
