Progression

Explanation:

The principle of the progression in the real estate states that the value of the property owned by a person will be increased if there are nice and highly desirable homes are present in the neighboring area.

Conversely, the value of the property owned by a person will be decreased if there are as normal and not nice and highly desirable homes present in the neighboring area.

Thus, Progression explains why the women paid more than the man as she purchased the home in highly desirable neighborhood.
