The strange reasons people sell their homes - including ghosts and mysterious leaks

Selling a home is a big decision, so the reason for doing so is often very understandable. However, some who have shared their reason for moving home may raise an eyebrow.

While typical reasons include selling up for a bigger home or getting a bit closer to friends and family, others can seem a bit more strange. Less common reasons for moving that have been reported include a fear of ghosts haunting a property and wanting to live a bit closer to a pub.
