As most people requil .'0:;19 h’;- centive, and usual- 1y one that has a J. G.

This is true primarily for the reason that in purchasing a home one not only develops a definite regular and system- atic saving from his income but the same time is enjoyinz the cor benefits and many advantages subject of ing to the family occupying its own | home, he said. A Mr. Beitzell was of the opinion that there are still hundreds of families pay- ing rent who are in a position to pur- chase a home but have not had the subject presented to them in a convinc- ing manner to demonstrate the simpli ty of home purchasing under modern financing conditions. While indicating that home selli offered splendid opportunity to ambi- tious persons willing to study and to work intelligently, Mr. Beitzell told the class that their work carried with it a serious responsibility to safeguard the interest of the family purchasing a home and pointed out that two out- standing features should be borne in mind by every salesman: First. never to sell a home to a family unless it reasonably meets the requircments of that particular family, and second, never to sell a home to a family at a price and on terms which the income received in the family cannot be rea- sonably expected to absorb. At the next meeting of the class Morton J. Luchs, vice president of Shannon & Luchs, Inc., will discuss the subject of business property dealing.

Owners of land cannot afford to toss a coin to decide whether to build an apartment house or an office building use of the land can make or break its value, says the National Assoclation of Real Estate Boards in an educational article released today. There is a certain type of structure ground, the assoclation holds. Three Factors Cited. | “It is not enough to observe all of tion unless after its selection the land maximum values cannot be until the proper buildings are placed on it,” it states. “Use of urban land is complicated by | three outstanding conditions—variety of | optional uses, changing land uses and changing public policies. “Urban land is put to many different uses and often it is optional which use shall be chcsen. A business site might be used for a department store or an office building; a_residential site for a single-family dwelling or an apartment house. With optional uses open for a given site, only the most careful anelysis will reveal which is best. “The problem is made more difficult for the average property owner to decide without_expert advice by the fact that urban land uses are changing con- | tial section may become a low-class | | in the largest net return during the |over three-fourths of 1 per cent is REAL ESTATE. disposition of the case was deferred MAN ASKS ]URY TRIAL until November 24.
