SEES “BUSIEST WINTER” IN D. C. REALTY OFFICES R. L. McKeever Notes Strong De- sire Among Citizens to, Pur- chase Homes. ‘Washington real estate offices are due for the busiest winter in their history, according to R. L. McKeever, local realtor. “Lack of suitable places for rent is turning the attention of not only the newcomers, but older residents of the city, to home-owning,” Mr. McKeever points out. “The price of building material has touched bottom, and is again on the rebound, due to the tre- mendously increased buflding activity throughout the country. Prices are, in my opinion, well stabilized at this time, and with a possible chance of a slight increase in the coming months because of increased demand over output. “The organization and actlvities of the Washington Real Estate Board have raised the standards of the real estate business and increased the confidence of the general public real estate investments in this city, he states. “In fact, we believe so strongly in the organization that we expect to send several of our sales- men to the annual convention of the National Association of Real Estate Boards next June in San Francisco.” ‘Washington is rapidly outgrowing the old slogan, “the heart of the na- tion,” and is now destined to become, if it has not already done so, the “heart of the world,” according to Mr. McKeever. The limitation of armament conference has brought this city into the limelight of the entire world, and has attracted thou- sands of persons to the city, he ex- plains. These visitors are delighted with the outlook and environment here. HOMES TO BE AUCTIONED. Shipping Board and Fleet Corpora- tion to Sell 2,000.
