The direction of the view determines when/if light enters the building. North facing views won't put sunbeams on a person's morning coffee (in Europe, Australia etc. are different), that's important to some people, not to others.

To put it another way, once a person cares about the view when picking a location, the person is likely to become picky. I might be fine looking out a cell tower five blocks away, another person isn't. They prefer trees 30m away.

Yup. That's why I'll give them a list. So they can chose between the tower and the trees.
