Lending Tree commissioned a survey by Qualtrics and made some interesting discoveries.
51% of men and 27% of women would pass on a home purchase for superstitious reasons.
Some of the deal breakers were: Living next to a cemetery, Staircases that faced the front door, Unlucky house number or street name.
1313 Mockingbird Lane or something on Elm Street?
However, nearly 50% of respondents said they have rituals or tasks they follow when moving into a new home to cleanse it of bad energy and prepare the home for their family.
47% of homebuyers would ignore their budget for a "lucky" house. Luck is more subjective. A lucky house address could be the buyer's lucky number or the street name could hold some meaning.
Happy Halloween!
