Requirements for your location verification video
To help us confirm your property’s location, there are a few things you need to include in your video. The video must be less than eight weeks old and show:
- A street sign of the street your property is located on
- The exterior of your property and the path to the interior

There are some things we can’t accept in the verification videos:
- Photo compilations or slideshows
- Timing effects, such as fast forward, slow motion, or time-lapse
- Visual effects, including black and white, transitions, filters, or distortions of any kind
This list of requirements is also visible when you upload the video to the Extranet.
