Real estate private sale - no address details

Sell your property through Privatepoint the real estate for sale by owner ( FSBO ), DIY real estate selling and private property sales website.

There is a trend amongst property owners not to display their property address details for their listing. Obviously the reason for this is for Privacy but exactly why I am unsure, is it because you don’t want real estate agents to know where your property is located?

Let me say, it dramatically reduces the attractiveness of your property listing as not only does the user not know the address of your property but the property does not appear on the Google map at the bottom of the property listing. When i am browsing properties, I always like to view the Google map to know exactly which street and where on that street the property is located.
