Why do parents favour sons when it comes to buying a property?

Rosie Wright from Times Radio Breakfast interviews Marc von Grundherr, Director at Benham and Reeves about why ‘Bank of Mum and Dad’ are favouring sons when it comes to buying their first property, rather than daughters. They discuss this phenomenon on the back of recently released statistics from UK property portal Zoopla.

Is this driven by career choices, marriage, location or just old fashioned gender bias … Marc looks at the buying stats and drivers behind this oddity and whether the gender pay gap may also be a factor.
