Why doesn’t Realtor.com show the seller’s phone number?
Because Realtor.com is sponsored and paid for by the National Association of Realtors (NAR) with the sole purpose of generating commissions for members, as you can imagine they have no interest in promoting homes “for sale by owner.” Therefore, it is against the rules of Realtor.com to include contact information for any seller, so only brokers’ information is displayed. As noted, general public inquiries will be provided with your contact information and be instructed to contact you directly.
