Superstitious buyers ensure No 13 houses are cheaper
To coincide with Friday the 13th, Daft.ie says that it has carried out a regression analysis on almost one million properties listed on the site since January 2006, which has shown the value of homes at number 13 is typically €4,700 cheaper than the average property.
The influence of triskaidekaphobia — the fear of the number 13 — goes beyond the value of house number 13, and also extends to the day houses are bought and sold.
