Transparency, Accuracy, and Global Renting

Is the information you see on Zillow always the full story? In this 12-minute segment, we dive into a major shift in how the nation’s largest real estate platform displays data and provide a practical guide for landlords working with international tenants.

The Zillow Climate Data Shake-up: We discuss why Zillow recently pulled climate risk data—such as flood and wildfire scores—from its listings after accuracy concerns were flagged by the CRMLS. Learn why platforms like Redfin and Realtor.com are making a different choice and what this means for your next home purchase.

Accuracy vs. Transparency: Understand the risks of relying on modeled environmental scores and why Zillow is prioritizing data verification over potentially misleading buyers.

The International Landlord's Guide: We answer a critical listener question regarding rental documents for non-citizen tenants without a Social Security number. We break down the essential paperwork you need to collect—from Passports and I-94 records to international credit reports—to protect your investment.

In a world of "Big Data," knowing which information to trust is vital. This episode empowers Atlanta homeowners and investors to look beyond the screen and understand the "why" behind the numbers, ensuring you make real estate decisions based on facts, not just formatted scores.
