Sun- . 1892—<SIXTEEN PAGE |ONE WEEK 1N REAL ESTATE Not Much to 8how but a Great Deal to Talk About, FIND MUCH CAUSE FOR SATISFACTION All the Dealers Clalm There to be Pleased with the City's cts—Farther Comparia of Values, Are Many son The last week has not boon very prolific of news in real estate circles. It cannot be claimed, however, that the situation has been in any way disappointing, for, while real estate men looked for increasad activity with the coming of settled weather, they did not expoct it to materializo all of a sudden with the first day of sunshino. Settled weather will cause building oparations to bo undertaken on a mora oxtensive scale and that always has n stimulating effect upon the real estate market. A featuro of the present situation is the amount of inquiry for property from nros- poctive purchasers, but at the sama tima there appears to bo a hesitancy about closiug up deals, This would seom to b due to the fact that mauy of the inquirios como from caitalists who ave secking invostments aua are making a thorough investigation, and taking their time to it, before piacing their monoy. The fact that some of thoso deals which havo been hanging firo for u long time do come to maturity is a good indication that Omaha proverty is really valuable and capable of standing the tost of thorough ox- aminatio Real ostate men appear to never grow tired of discussing the many advantages o bo do- rived by real ostato owners from the carry- ing out of the Nevraska Contral scheme. 1In fact, it is protty hurd to talk with o real es- tato'man without his bringing up that sub- jeet, They appear to feel that Omaha is ac- tually progressing, and that, too, 8 most solld and substantial manner; but' that some new enterprise commensurate with tho sizo of the city should be undertaken to convinco outsido capital that Omaha is really nwake. Tao impression is s0 goneral that the car- rying of the Nebraska Central scheme will be followed by an improvement in real ostate values that a good many capitalists are said to be figuring on making heavy investments should the election go in favor of the pro- posed schewme. Old and New Values, The comparison of values presentad in Tire Soxpay Bre last week occasioned ® great deal of comment among those interested in the subject. The fignres were really a sur- prise even to thoso well informed, but who had not taken the trouble to make compar- isons for themselves. ‘Lhe advance in valuos was shown to have beon enormous, and as the actual location of each pieco of property was given there was no chance for misrep- resentation. Comparisous were mado on property located in all parts of the city, showing that the advance had been general and not contined to any one favored locality. In order to allow of the somparison being carried still further tho Potter & Georgo company has allowed its bdoks to bs exam- ined. It will bo noted that actual sales are reported, the majority of them occurring 1a 1887, which are compared with present valuos: Present nd Pric Value. Gription 1 2, o uddition, Hills!
