Elect Officers —Savino Out On Bail, Tncrease of the real estate brok- cre’ commissions for the sale of property to 3 per cent Instead of the prevailing rate of 2 per cent was dis- cussed yesterday afternoon at the meeting of the local realtors’ asso- ciation at the EIks club. The local men did not vote yesterday to raise the price at once but decided to look |into the matter thoroughly with the air Im prospect of increasing the commission rate in the immediate future, 1t was brought out yesters day that the prices, charged by the 1ocal brokers were unique for their fairness as in Hartford, New Britain and even Plainville, a higher rate had heen prevalent for years. Un- less the rates are raised, the local men feel that the realtors cannot do themselves justice as the overhead, which has been steadily increasing, has made many do some sharp thinking to make ends meet. Advice favorable to the increasing of the rates, was temdered by Thomas D. Faulkner of Hartford, who said that the low rates of the local realtors should not be con- tinued as the labor of consummating property transfers, office expense and other overhead costs did not al- low the realtors sufficlent emolu- ment for his end of the matter. He favored the raising of the rates to the amounts. charged fn the nelgh- boring cities. The situation in Plain- viila was cited yesterday, when it was shown that Bristol roal estate men, selling property in the neigh- bering township charged 2 per cent while the New Dritain brokers charged 3 per cent for the sales in the same town. The real estate hoard was shown to be in a highly prosperous condi- tion, when the reports of the officers were presented yesterday.
