Therein lies the danger in online comments, especially when someone's home value is at stake-- misinformation. The risk can be dealt with, to a certain extent, if you know about the misinformation and put out correcting information... BUT, on Zillow Q&A, for example, a conversation can be taking place about your home or listing without your knowledge or consent. It is then impossible to monitor misinformation about the home. Keep in mind that any flagging mechanism is useless unless the person knows about the misinformation and bothers to correct it-- the owner & LA have the greatest incentive to do it, but guess what--if they dont know about the conversation they cant flag it &, this is noteworthy, the misinformation REMAINS up there EVEN IF they flag it. A prospective buyer won't know who to believe and may just not want to be bothered and move on. just my opinion. Now, I am not against the "concept' of online comment features, so long as homeowner & listing agents rights are preserved. The home is their asset to market in the way they see fit, NOT how the community sees fit. And let's not compare consumer opinions about a pizza parlors with homes. Tony,

Good point. Therein lies the danger in online comments, especially when someone’s home value is at stake– misinformation.

The risk can be dealt with, to a certain extent, if you know about the misinformation and put out correcting information…

Thanks. Is a listing agent required to tell prospective buyers about rotten neighbors? It would be transparent, no? Right on point RottenHere. Thanks.
