The CVR MLS team frequently receives requests from buyer agents whose clients, now the new owners of a property, want the interior listing photos removed from public view.

If the listing has already closed, released, or expired: CVR MLS staff can remove the listing from IDX entirely. The request should be made from the listing agent to [email protected]

• If the listing has not yet been moved to a closed status in the MLS, buyer agents should reach out to the listing agent directly to ask about initiating the Media Privacy feature for their clients.  Usually, a front, exterior view is selected.
• If the listing has already been closed in the MLS, please contact us at [email protected] and copy the listing agent.  

If you’re not familiar with our Media Privacy tool, check out this article, which provides details on its function and how listing agents can invoke this feature in the MLS. 

A word of caution:  once Media Privacy is initiated, it can not be turned off.  You can change which picture will be your public facing photo, but you can’t “undo” the privacy feature. It cannot be enabled after going off-market. Staff can change internet display to no by request.

Any changes require 24 hours to reflect on third party sites. If they continue to display after this point, please follow up with the website directly.

If you have questions media privacy, please contact us at [email protected].
