The entire new apartment and condo industry is built around attracting the largest buyer demographic during a 10min walk through. That buyer is a late 20s single (or otherwise unilaterally decision making) woman. Many millions have been spent on market research to figure out what these women want.

This is why modern apartments have big bathrooms with copious flat space around the sink and good looking living spaces but when you actually live in them you'll find out there's not enough room to scoot around your wife's thicc ass while she's digging for something in the fridge or any attempt to host a party becomes an instant game of human bumper cars due to the traffic paths to the drinks, bathroom, main room. Many times you'll even find that these apartments can only be furnished with minimalist aesthetics while there is technically room for standard furniture and appliance sets they make the spaces unusable. Women don't get exited about the kind of "there's space on this wall for a 80" TV and if we put the beer on the left side of the fridge you can reach it without getting off the couch" and "look at all these kitchen cabinets, I'll never pull out a pan to find that it's dirty from oil/dust" raw practicality type stuff that men do and will happily trade it away to make a more aesthetic space. Men will also much more readily live in older construction and place less value upon "new" or "new-ish" so there's a healthy amount of "what new buyers want vs what used buyers want" discrepancy going on too.
