The research was commissioned by estate agents Purplebricks.com, which also looked at other stresses which affect people in life.
For example, 35% of respondents said they felt pressured to start a family, while 53% said "making a success of their career" was never far from their minds. A further two-thirds admitted they would feel a "failure" if they failed to own a home by the time they reached the age of 3. In fact, 55% believe they should have bought a property of their own by the age of 30, with 66% considering it a failure if they haven't.
Michael Bruce, founder of Purplebrick.com, said: "These are interesting findings which certainly represent the change in times. As house prices have rocketed in recent years there seems to have been a shift in people's priorities with many choosing to focus on their professional life first, so that they are in a better financial position for settling down to buy a house and have a family."
