What makes a home’s listing suddenly go viral?

There are some homeowners who go all out when designing their residences, leaving nothing to the imagination. Luckily when these places come on the market, we get to peek inside. From over-the-top amenities, to celeb-owned estates, and majestic mansions, these clicky listings quickly become the most shared on social media.

So now that we’re at the halfway point of 2022, we thought we’d take a look back at what listings grabbed the most views so far.
