Simon Hicks,  an estate agent in West London, says that in his experience there is a clear division between the sexes when it comes to whether they see a newly refurbished West London property as more favorable than a non-refurbished West London property.

“When it comes to property refurbishment in West London, men are inclined to disregard this concern and focus purely on the potential of the living space and how it might be altered.” mr. Hicks said.

“Women on the other hand are completely different creatures, as we know, and traditionally they are sticklers for new carpet, a good paint job and modern, practical, stylish fixtures and fittings.” Hey stressed.
