Laws, sixty-five years, commission merchant, and former member of the general hospital bullding commis- sjon, died yesterday, shortly after be- ing struck by an automobil, General practice permlits one to spend one-fifth of the total Income for rent or for the annual expense of owning a home. However, in the lower range of incomes one-fifth is too large a proportion to pay for rent. Families with small incomes cannot afford to spend more than one-eighth of their income for remt. This annual expense of owning.a Bome covers the cost of repairs, in- surance, taxes and interest on the amount invested. If it is necessary to borrow money on a note or mortgage this one-fifth does not cover any payments toward cancel- ing the notes or mortgages. That must come out of the savings. The man who fs able to secure the money to build a ten-thousand- dollar home should also be able to pay $1,000 a year for repairs, taxes and the interest on the investment. To do that he should have an annual income of $5,000 a vear. Tax rates as well as labor. costs vary, and one should know in ad- vance how much your house will cost to bulld and how much it will cost each year thereafter. Then you will know the kind of & house you can afford to build.
