I'm a couple of weeks from listing my house in a small town in a rural community. My Facebook is private, but instragam, with plenty of geo-tags, isn't. The house is distinctive, and wouldn't be hard for anyone to find. There's nothing damning there, neither about me or the house. But maybe the less personal info a potential buyer sees/knows the better?
Should I change the IG setting to private before the listing goes live?
Should I lock down my socials before listing?

Yes.
Yes, also use a temporary phone number for everything related to this transaction like a google voice number. You might also consider a separate email. That contact info will get put into marketing lists and be sold and resold, forever basically. So it’s nice to be able to turn them off.
