COME IN AND TALK Iv CVER office, Denver, Colo, d Income Property Now 700,000 residences and is very short on practically all character of buildings. As a whole this country is Forty Percent underbuilt.’’ —Publishers, ATLANTIG MONTHLY Magazine. Think of it, 700,000 families in need of homes—a ! fair percentage of this shortage being in our city! To you, who are investors, this means that practi- cally any number of houses you could build would be rented immediately. You know this is a fact with- out the statement of the above mentioned authority. It is true, a string of income properties like the above would cost you somewhat more to build at! present than they would have cost five years ago. But to offset this increased cost, the rents which generally prevail today are a great deal higher than they were five years ago. Even though building costs are a little higher today than in times past, still they are moderate as com- pared with other costs. The United States Depart- ment of Labor says: “The increased cost of building materials is only about one-half that of other com- modities.”” ° 4 These are prosperous, swiftly-moving times; during which costs and prices are always high. ‘The advantages of building now we leave you to figure out for yourself. Let us, however, quote an opinion handed downby the publishers of* the ‘Architectural Forum’?s “For those contemplating building it would be decidedly short-sighted policy to delay. Building - costs are a trifle high at present, it is true, but against this are the tremendously high rentals that generally prevail. The small amount you would lose by building now would be far more than off- set by what you would gain in the matter of rents.” Build Now! Nothing can be gained by waiting. Authorities are agreed that you can build as econ- omically now as at any time in the future that can yet be foreseen. “BUILD NOW” Campaign to Create Prosperity in Casper-—-More Homes Needed — Hardware for the Builder WEBEL COMMERCIAL CO. “The Big Busy Store” Strained! will Help Speed Recons: Build Now!
