Burke Harmon Gives Points to Make Money in Realty | Operations. W. Burke Harmon, Ne% York realty ‘operator, recently issued a categorical | list of six points for making money in | the real estate field. Summed up from the viewpoint of the home owner, they are as follows: Buy only property with improvements | nstalled, in the direct line of popula- ion growth. Hold on to it long enough for its value to mature; it is seldom that land can be advantageously sold as soon as other securities. Finance the purchase with your own money, not funds subject to recall at some inoppor- tune moment. Keep some funds in reserve for taxes, mortgages, assess- ments and interest; the first cost in real estate is not the last. Secure well grounded knowledge of population trends, neighborhood developments and probable city growths. Recognize the difference between real facts and good advice, the opinions of friends may be wrong. DYL7aYI7RYA!
