Similarly 63% said that having &#8220;<em>fibre broadband<\/em>&#8221; (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/fttc\">FTTC<\/a> \/ <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/fttp\">FTTP<\/a>) in their household was very important.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Interestingly the research noted that 60% of 18-35 year old respondents, who tend to make up the bulk of future homeowners, stated that they would check broadband speeds in advance of buying a property. On top of that 54% of those in the same age bracket said they would pay &#8220;<em>a lot or a little<\/em>&#8221; more for a property if it had access to &#8220;<em>superfast fibre broadband<\/em>&#8221; (defined as 24Mbps+ in this study).<\/p>\n<p>There is also now a much greater awareness of the types of broadband available in <strong>Northern Ireland<\/strong>, with almost 8 out of 10 people being aware of &#8220;<em>superfast broadband<\/em>&#8221; (<strong>24Mbps+<\/strong>) but only just under half were aware of the latest &#8220;<em>ultrafast<\/em>&#8221; (<strong>100Mbps+<\/strong>) services.<\/p>\n<p>Elsewhere it\u2019s noted that 22% of respondents spent between 4 and 6 hours online a day, while 41% were online for more than 6 hours a day.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"bq1\"><p><strong>Frank McManus, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/britishtelecom\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">BT<\/a>&#8217;s Head of Marketing for NI, said:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The survey shows how important fibre broadband has become to peoples\u2019 everyday lives, with only a tiny fraction, just 4 per cent of households with broadband, now being online for less than an hour each day.<\/p>\n<p>As the use of broadband continues to grow \u2013 with 82 per cent using it for social media at least several times a week, 80 per cent for email, 63 per cent for watching films or TV and 58 per cent for downloading or streaming music &#8211; understanding what greater download speeds can deliver is critical.<\/p>\n<p>Better download speeds make all these activities faster and, with more people within households using devices, from smart TVs and laptops to phones and gaming consoles, speed and reliability are essential if you don\u2019t want to slow down other users in the home.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The survey was conducted in February 2018 via face-to-face interviews with people aged over 18 across Northern Ireland, which resulted in a fairly small sample size of 258 (i.e. take with a pinch of salt). Nevertheless these results appear to be roughly in keeping with similar surveys that have previously been conducted on the importance of broadband, particularly to those in the market for a new house (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/2017\/08\/average-uk-house-buyers-spend-6500-extra-fast-broadband-speeds.html\">example<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>At this point it&#8217;s worth noting that the coverage of fixed line superfast and ultrafast broadband networks in N.Ireland is among the weakest in the UK. Overall around 86% can access 30Mbps+ capable connections and this falls to a little over 30% for 100Mbps+. Clearly there&#8217;s a lot of work left to do but we might soon see some movement (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/2018\/04\/northern-ireland-consult-on-150m-ultrafast-broadband-boost.html\">here<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>Separately the comparison site Gocompare has today published a new list, which claims to show the top 20 features that UK home-buyers look for and unsurprisingly &#8220;<em>good broadband<\/em>&#8221; is near the top.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span style=\"color: #339966;\"><strong>Top 20 property must-haves<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>1. Central heating 82%<br \/>\n2. Double glazing 80%<br \/>\n3. Secure doors and windows 74%<br \/>\n4. A garden 69%<br \/>\n<em>5. A good, reliable broadband connection sufficiently strong to stream films and TV 59%<\/em><br \/>\n6. Plenty of electrical sockets 59%<br \/>\n7. Local shops and amenities 58%<br \/>\n8.

A new boiler or central heating system 37%<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>As usual we must caveat that such surveys are highly subjective. At the end of the day the decision about how much you pay for a house, as well as what matters most in that equation, will always come down to a matter of personal choice, which is different for everybody and every location being considered.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A new FN Research survey commissioned by BT has reported that 60% of people in Northern Ireland would be put off from moving into a new house if it suffered from &#8220;poor or slow broadband&#8220;.
