FTB here, and whilt I build up to my £26k (15%) deposit (£4k left to go) I am still everyday looking at property online for now more than £170k....I think i'm drving OH mad but I can't help it. I know I can get this 10% but I'd rather pay less each month so hopefully summer buy will hit my way.

I won't be buying for probably another 2 years yet but I still find myself checking my right move app several times a day!! You're not alone!0

I was exactly the same before I bought! I've been in there almost a year now and I still obsessively check Rightmove, despite having absolutely no intention of buying another property so you're definitely not alone0

Bought 3 and still looking every day.
Mind you now I'm looking for the big house in the SW.0 -
We had an offer accepted last weekend, yet still looking and was obsessively looking before we had the offer accepted!0

We aren't moving but I look at least once a week at what's been put on lol was looking to see if any houses like ours had loft conversions for ideas for ours too lolHave a Bsc Hons open degree from the Open University 2015 :j:D:eek::T0

We've been for sale since the back end of November last year but my wife has religiously checked RM every day we first said we were going to do it, which would have been early last year.
I check it daily, but only use the 'updated in the last 24hrs' option most of the time so I can stop myself looking at all the ones I already quite like. My wife can spend all day looking at it though (and regularly does on a Sunday).0 -
I LIVE on Rightmove and Zoopla. I love the map draw feature on Zoopla and I am always 'drawing' around places I may not have thought of. I think I have seen every property again and again and again in the part of England we are looking to buy in! I think I could tell you the colours of the carpets/walls just from seeing a picture of the front door now!0

Another addict here! Dreaming to buy, but so far all the ones I like are out of reach (budget wise).... and then if you see something half affordable you wonder what's wrong with it
can't win0 -
This is exactly why Rigtmove and Zoopla statistic are rubbish. there are so many people who are not looking to buy, just looking (nothing wrong with that)0
-
Still get the Rightmove alert emails - even though we moved over 5 years ago. In fact, I noticed our old house was for sale again a few weeks ago and it was interesting to see how little the new owner had changed!0
