Google provides separate instructions for a business pin and an address pin. Use the matching correction, then check the map and directions linked from your own website. [Google's business-pin instructions](https://support.google.com/business/answer/2853879?hl=en), [Google's address-pin instructions](https://support.google.com/maps/answer/10010575?hl=en&co=GENIE.Platform%3DDesktop), checked 2026.10.14. Start with the exact link a buyer or seller used. Compare the named business, street address, map position, and route destination. Keep the website repair focused on accurate meeting information and a usable contact path. The checks below are a proposed review sequence. They report no completed correction or inquiry result. ## Identify whether the office pin is wrong Search for your public business name, then search separately for its full street address. Open the map link from your website too. Record differences before requesting changes. Use this diagnostic worksheet. Each row describes a possible observation, not a finding about your office. | What you observe | What to investigate | Website action to check | | --- | --- | --- | | The named office appears on the wrong building. | Business Profile pin. | Open the exact business linked from the contact page. | | The address search points elsewhere too. | Public address location. | Compare the complete displayed address with the approved office address. | | The office is correctly placed, but your own position is wrong. | Device location. | Keep that observation separate from the destination link. | | The pin is correct, but directions use the wrong approach. | Route instructions. | Check the route from the website and approved arrival notes. | | Maps opens correctly, but the website sends you elsewhere. | Website link or embedded map. | Give the maintainer the starting page and incorrect destination. | Google's blue dot represents your location. An inaccurate blue dot belongs to its location-accuracy troubleshooting process. [Google's location-accuracy help](https://support.google.com/maps/answer/2839911?hl=en), checked 2026.10.14. Use a second device to compare the destination when practical. Record what each displays. Avoid treating a device-location symptom as evidence that your public office needs moving. ## Confirm which business and meeting location the website describes Identify whether the result represents you, your team, or the brokerage. Compare its website destination with the business named on that page. Do not change another agent's record to repair your own link. Google's practitioner rules include real estate agents. A separate practitioner profile requires a public-facing role and direct contact at the verified location during stated hours. Virtual mailing offices do not qualify. Coworking locations require signage, customer visits, and staffing by the business during business hours. [Google's business representation guidelines](https://support.google.com/business/answer/3038177?hl=en), checked 2026.10.14. Confirm the address with the person responsible for the office. Record its building, suite, and actual customer entrance for your website brief. Identify who approves the public wording and the profile correction. If you do not serve customers at your business address, Google says you can hide that address and list your service area. [Google's address guidance](https://support.google.com/business/answer/2853879?hl=en), checked 2026.10.14. Keep a private home address out of the website's directions block when it is not a customer meeting location. ## Use the correction that matches the error Have the authorized profile manager handle business-record changes. Prepare the public Maps link, approved address, screenshot of the error, and description of the actual location. Keep private client records out of that material. ### Adjust the business pin Google's current Business Profile instructions give this sequence: 1. Open the Business Profile. [Google's business-pin instructions](https://support.google.com/business/answer/2853879?hl=en), checked 2026.10.14. 2. Select **Edit profile**, then **Location**. [Google's business-pin instructions](https://support.google.com/business/answer/2853879?hl=en), checked 2026.10.14. 3. Beside **Business location**, select the edit control. 4. Select **Adjust**. [Google's business-pin instructions](https://support.google.com/business/answer/2853879?hl=en), checked 2026.10.14. 5. Move the map until the pin identifies the business location. 6. Select **Done**, then **Save**. [Google's business-pin instructions](https://support.google.com/business/answer/2853879?hl=en), checked 2026.10.14. Follow [Google's business-pin procedure](https://support.google.com/business/answer/2853879?hl=en), checked 2026.10.14. Retain the correct street address while correcting the map position. Describe entrance access separately in your website brief. ### Correct the public address location For an address error, Google's computer instructions say to search for the address in Maps. Select **Suggest an edit**, then **Wrong pin location or address**. Enter the address information and submit it. [Google's address correction procedure](https://support.google.com/maps/answer/10010575?hl=en&co=GENIE.Platform%3DDesktop), checked 2026.10.14. Check that you selected the address you intended. Keep your submission date and the public destination for later comparison. Google's same guide distinguishes public address corrections from private labels visible only to their creator. A personal label is unsuitable evidence that clients will see the correction. For an incorrect existing place record, Maps also accepts suggested address or map-location changes through **Suggest an edit** and the relevant attribute. Google reviews suggestions before publication. [Google's place-edit guidance](https://support.google.com/maps/answer/7084895?hl=en&ref_topic=3257381), checked 2026.10.14. Keep the reported object explicit: business profile, street address, or existing place. Avoid submitting conflicting corrections without identifying what each should resolve. ### Report a wrong route when the pin is correct Google provides a separate wrong-directions report on computers in supported countries and regions. It excludes Transit directions. Open **Directions**, enter the affected start and destination, select the route, and open **Details**. Use **Send Product Feedback**, flag the incorrect step, select the problem, and submit. [Google's wrong-directions procedure](https://support.google.com/maps/answer/6194894?hl=en), checked 2026.10.14. Preserve the route and the incorrect step in your notes. Ask the office to verify any proposed entrance or parking instructions before publishing them. Keep the business pin at its actual location while investigating the route. ## Make your website's arrival information inspectable Review the contact page, footer, agent biography, appointment confirmation, and any embedded map. Open each directions link independently. Give every defect a starting URL, action, observed destination, and approved correction. Ask the website maintainer to meet these requirements: | Website element | Requirement to approve | | --- | --- | | Business identity | Name the agent or team and current brokerage accurately. | | Office address | Show the approved customer location and suite where applicable. | | Map or directions link | Open the intended place and inspect its displayed destination. | | Arrival notes | Describe only confirmed entrance, parking, and appointment arrangements. | | Appointment wording | Explain how to request or confirm a meeting. | | Contact fallback | Provide a working phone or inquiry route for location questions. | These are acceptance recommendations. They do not establish that an embedded map, printed address, and directions button agree on your current site. Test each element before accepting the repair. Keep office visits and property visits clearly labeled. A buyer asking about a listed home should not have to infer whether a map represents the property or your office. Ask the receiving person to approve those labels beside the inquiry form. ## Check publication, arrival, and inquiry delivery separately Business Profile edits can show as accepted, pending, or not approved. Google reviews edits and provides an appeal route for some rejected business-information changes. [Google's edit-status guidance](https://support.google.com/business/answer/3038311), checked 2026.10.14. Record the displayed status. Then inspect the public result separately from the editing screen. Leave an unpublished or rejected change unresolved. For arrival validation, ask someone familiar with the office to compare the public destination with the actual customer entrance. Review routes from agreed starting points while stationary. Record a wrong approach separately from a wrong building pin. No physical arrival check has been performed for this guide. Finally, test the website's buyer and seller contact paths with labeled sample inquiries and details you control. Agree on the intended recipient first. Require the received message to preserve the question, reply details, and any appointment or property context. Keep separate evidence for each result: the public map position, the checked directions, the corrected website link, and the received inquiry. Avoid attributing an inquiry increase or a ranking change to the pin correction without evidence. Google Business Profile work is not part of the whole website fix.
