According to a recently released report from Realtor.com, a new study showed that not everyone would be wary of living in a haunted home. The study explored consumer sentiments around their perceptions of "haunted" real estate. Survey results from nearly 1,400 respondents reveal consumer thresholds for purchasing haunted houses for sale, past experiences with spooky homes, popular "warning signs" of a haunted home expected discounts when buying "perceived" haunted houses for sale and intolerable scary occurrences. "Survey reveals that while the majority of consumers are open to purchasing a haunted home, many buyers conduct their own research on a home's history to be aware of any weird incidences", says Alison Schwartz, VP of Communications for Move. "Data also finds that while some respondents are willing to purchase a haunted home at a discounted price, many say levitating objects, ghost sightings and seeing objects move from one place to another would deter them from purchasing a home."
Sentiment regarding a haunted home purchase:
- 26% of respondents indicated that they would consider purchasing a haunted house for sale
- 36% shared that they might consider a haunted home purchase
- 38% revealed that they would not consider a haunted home purchase
