Realtor.com announced Wednesday that it will add features that will provide climate risk information on listings.
The company said that the three features will show the heat, wind and air quality risks associated with a property.
Listings currently show a property's fire and flood risks.
Realtor.com said in a press release that over 40% of homes are at severe or extreme risk when it comes to heat, wind and air quality.
A 2023 report from Harvard University estimated that 60 million U.S. homes are currently vulnerable to climate disasters.
Climate change has already become a factor in residential development and home ownership as insurance companies State Farm and Allstate decided to not offer new homeowner policies in California in 2023. Some insurance companies have made similar decisions in Florida.
The research team at USA TODAY Homefront ranked 96 of the 100 most populous U.S. cities across eight metrics to determine the most climate-resilient cities.
