Folks, this has been going on for years to a degree. I'm a real estate appraiser and I take photos of peoples houses from the street every single day. Also, most County tax departments also include at least one photo of your house - and this along with every little detail of your property is available (in most areas) online and completely free of charge. If I wanted to, I could look up your house online and find out what it looks like, how big it is, how many bedrooms and baths you have, when you bought it and for how much, etc. Other companies have tried to do what this Canadian firm is doing but have never finished. It's a hugely daunting task.
