Would-be house buyers in the North-West are facing barriers to moving home, with associated costs like property tax among the biggest barriers.
Figures from Gocompare.com show that 51% of people in the North-West would like to move house, more than any other region outside of London and the South-East.
But they face an average wait of 4.2 years – longer than any region but the North-East.
Some 24% of those surveyed in the North-West worry that they will never be able to afford to move home – and this is the highest proportion of any region surveyed.
The single greatest barrier, cited by one in five of North-Westers surveyed, is the cost of buying a property and moving into it.
Contributing elements to this may include everything from hiring a removal van, to property tax and conveyancing costs.
