People who have had estimates made have been bitterly disappointed with the amount of money required to complete the » building. Costs are still too high. Financing ‘.. ' is impossible on the present basis. Projects - are abandoned almost as soon as the esti- mates are read. Money is available but the security is undesirable when such a largeé percentage of the total cost.is made up of abnormal costs. Until all the costs which enter into | building return to a normal basis it will not be reasonable ‘to assume that money will i become available for building purposes. In order to make the situation clear consider the subject of homes. Homes ARE high! They still cost en- tirely too much money! The average man cannot afford to build a home now because There is, therefore, apfiroximtely $2,800 too much COST in the house and for this sum the home builder obtains “absolutely : NOTHING, because, if he should build now, % the value of his home in a comparatively short time will be but $6,000. The reluctancy -of the “70 per cent” (which includes LABOR) to get back to a normal basis, has stagnated building activi- ties. There will be no resumption of work until these prices return to normal. ‘This is one of the principal reasons wh labor is, at the present time, lmemploye«;,r and why the situation is becoming worse every day.
