The first of these objectives, according | to Garber, concerns the formation of | Jocal credit assoclations, which are being | created to eliminate loose credit condi- tions in the building industry. In 50 cities, credit bureaus are being formed through the co-operative work of gen- eral contractors, subcontractors and material dealers, although the plan be- ing followed was only formulated last year.

The renter will be surprised to learn that these apart- ments can be purchased for a great deal less than would have to be paid to rent similar accomoda- tions elsewhere. For example: The rental value of a Type 4 apartment (shown in accompanying floor plan) it at least $70.00 a month, in- cluding electric refrigeration. In three years the sum of the monthly rental payments would be $2,520. In three years the sum of the monthly payments of $47.25, under this Co-operative Ownership Plan, would be $1,701. A saving to the Co-operative Owner of $819, or more than the $765 cash payment he was required to make at the time of purchase. In less than three years his cash payment will have been returned to him in the form of rentul savings, and yet he will still have more than the amount of the original cash payment credited to him as a result of increased equity. Each succeeding year will increase his equity and show a larger saving by comparison with rental cost. Every apartment in this development will show a similar result. 100% Co-operativg “Dedicated to the Beauty That Is Washington” It might be said that these wonderful apartments were planned by women — AND WHO KNOWS BETTER WHAT A REAL APARTMENT HOME SHOULD BE?
