Wi-Fi now a deal breaker for many house hunters

Potential buyers will walk away from properties that don’t have adequate Wi-Fi, according to a recent survey. Sub-par internet is a dealbreaker for 33% of potential buyers. Roughly half say they would be put off by noisy neighbours and many cited thin walls as a major turn-off. Mortgage brokers First Mortgage found 80% of house hunters are put off by minor issues, such as dogs barking in the area, trees over-hanging the garden and missed bin days. First Mortgage's David McGrail said: "A property is likely to be the biggest purchase anyone ever makes so it's important to be picky."
