Property Porn – Are you an addict?

I read an article recently which claimed a large chunk of the UK’s population are addicts.

Porn addicts no less – actually to be precise – property porn addicts.

The report from a home insurance company said 63 per cent of the country’s population admitted to window shopping property online with no intention of buying.

They confessed to snooping around to check their home’s value, seeing what was selling in their neighbourhood and to look at houses with a real wow factor.

The tabloid newspapers labelled these dream homes of the rich and famous ‘property porn’ hence the reference.

The ranks of the addicted might just be browsing but at Galloways we attract serious buyers who don’t just ‘kick tyres’ but who want to buy their dream home.

Incidentally in another report I read recently that the nation’s ideal home isn’t a Caribbean mansion but a 3.5 bed room, detached house with a south facing garden which is close to transport and local shops.

Finding YOUR dream home is something we’re addicted to helping people do.

Thanks for reading and if you have any property related questions please don’t hesitate to get in touch with us – we’d love to help you.
