💨 Abstract

People, including Georgia Lewis in the UK and Lisa Dollan in the US, browse property websites like Rightmove for entertainment, daydreaming, or escapism. This habit, dubbed "property porn," involves searching for houses one cannot afford or realistically buy, leading to a dopamine rush similar to retail therapy. For some, it becomes addictive, with users imagining their potential future homes.
