REALTY MARKET REVIEW. Real Estate Dealers Talk About the Mortgage Tax Law. THEY FAVOR ITS REPEAL Several Auction Sales to Be Heid This Week—Review of the Records. The chief feature of the market the past week was a notable increase in the inquiry for small properties. This demand comes, 80 brokers say, mainly from veovle having a few thousand dollars in the bank, and which they seem to prefer to invest in real estate rather than allow it to Temain in the bank. One or two of the savings banks have given notice to their depositors that the six moaths’ notice pro- vided for by law must be given the bank be- fore deposits can be withdrawn. This action on the part of the banks has created some un- easiness among depositors and has prompted the latter in a number of instances to seek de- sirable property in which to invest their savings. The repeal of the morigage tax law, to which allusion was made last week, is generally fayored by real-estate men, as will be seen from the following interviews: A. 8. Baldwin of the firm of Baldwin & Ham- mond, when asked for his opinion of the mat- ter, said: I favor the reveal of the law for the reason that it would have a beneficial effect upon the City and State. - It would bring outside capital bere for in- vestment in loans,something that it is quite tm- prssible o get under present conditions. I beliey 100, that it would materially reduce the rate of in- As matters now stand, while the lender terest. e nominally pays the tax, yei the ra#e of interest is always made high enouzh to mo¥e than cover the tax and leave a net interest of good proportions. The uncertainty as to what the tax rate is going to be each year makes lenders ask a high enough rate toinsure themselves against loss, and, where the taxes do not come up to the point estimated by the lender, the borrower is & loger. 1t is a matter of vast importance to the State, and the subject should be taken up by real estate’ men ard an ef- fort made t0 show the people the advantages that would accrue from a repeal of the law. Spencer C. Buckbee of the firm of Shainwald, Buckbee & Co., said: Yes. I favor the repeal of the mortgage tax law for a number of reasons. Parties who have money o loan on real estate seek stability of vawe in the security offered and stability in the rate of in- | terest. Under our system of taxing mortzages it is impossible to figure exactly what the net re- turns on a mortgage loan will be. No one can es- timate accurately what the tax rate will be from year to vear, and only local parties and institu- tions will make loans here and they do it because they know the local conditions and can guess bet- ter what taxes are liable to be from one year to an- other. The removal of the mortgaze tax would cause large sums of Eastern and foreign capital to come here for investment in loans. It would cause s competition in the loan business that would reduce interest rates. The borrower would thus be bene- fited. He pays the tax anyway indirectly, for the interest rate is always madeé high enough to include the tax, and if the lender guesses too high in rezard to the tax rate—and he will never guess too low—the borrower is the loser. Gustav B. Umbsen of the firm of G. H. Umb- sen & Co. expresses himself as follows: Icertain'y favor & repeal of the mortgage tax law. for the reason that it will be the means of bringing outside capital to :his State—something that we are much in need of for developinz our numerous resources. As MAtiers are at present it is possible to obtain money for mortgage loans only from people within our own State. The re- peal of the law would, in my opinion, reduce the Tates of interest, and in this as well as many other ways be of advantage to the borrower. The many good reasons why the law should be repealed should be so clear toany one who gives the matter any consideration, that little or mo argument should be required to induce & majority of voters 10 vote for the repeal of the law at the coming election. Will E. Fisher of the irm of WillE. Fisher & Co. said: I cannot express myself too emphatically in favor of the repeal of the mortgage tax law. Its existence has been a_drawback to our State and has retarded the growih and aevelopment of this Cit; ‘We have built ourselves up to the point we are at simply from our own resources and without the ald, to any material extent, of outside capital. We have reason to be proud of that we haveac- complished, to be sure, but think how much greater would have been the progress of San Fran- cisco and California if we had during all these years had the aid of outside capital in addition to our own. 1 know from my own experience, gained while I was East recently, that plenty of money could be obtained there for loans on mortgages here at 314 10 4 per cent, provided we did not have a mort- gage-tax law. Borrowers in this City are paying 834 to 7 per cent. The lender pays the tax which did not until last year average much over 134 per cent. Upinthe country farmers can seldom ob- tain loans except from local banks, to whom they are obliged to pay 9, 10 and as high 'as 12 per cent. The tax on the mortgage which the lender pavs amounts to but litt e co ' pared with what we pay here in the City. If it was not for the barrier of the mortgage-tax law farmers conld obtain money for almost half what they have to vay for it ut present. If California wanis to make more rapid progress than she has made up to date, outside capital must be had, and it can only be obtained on Joans by the repeal of the mortgage-tax Iaw. Charles Spader, of the firm of Center & Spader, had the following to say: The morigage tax law should, in my opinion, be repealed, and until it is we need not hope to ob- from outside the State to loan on real esiate. Eastern capitalists who have money to loan are almost always willing to accept a low rate of interest on good loans, but they want to know what their money is going to net them, and they will not put it out with the attending u certainty that exists here as to what rate a loan will ne_after the payment of the mortgage tax. I think borrowers would be benefited, for it would in the end reduce the rate of interest, paricularly on country loans. A. M. Speck of the firm of A. M. Speck & Co. sald: I have not given the matter extended considera- tion, but 80 far as I have investigated I believe the repeal of the mortgage-tax law would prove of ereat benefit to the City ana State. 1t would cause outside capital to come in, and there is com- petition even in money-lending, such competition being naturally beneficial to borrowers, for it en- ables them in many insiances o obiein money at Jower rates than they could otherwise. Iu an interview with H. D. Lausie and A. Carmany the managers of the California Title Insurance and Trust Company, they both expressed themseives as decidedly in favor ot the repesl of the mortgage-tax law. They stated that they knew from their own ex- periexce that it was impossible to obtain outside capital L0 loan on mortgages in this State 8o long as the morigage-tax law is in existence. They said that the need of outside capital to aid in the development of tae State was generally conceded, and the mortgage-tax law is a ba.rier that wiil per- petusily exclude capital from the State 50 long ss said law remains in force. Mr. Harding, the attorney for this company, sald that he went East aboulL two years 2go0 for the express purpose of Lrying to induce large financial institutions to place capltai at the disposal of their company for loaning on real estate in this State. He found nearly all those he interviewed quits willing to enter into arrangements with him, and found that they were willing to effect loans ai 314 10 434 per cent, but as soon as he informed them of the provisions of the mortgage tax law, nego- tiations were brought abruptly to a close, and he was unable to fini one individusl or concern willing 1o invest & singie doliar in California in the shape of mortgage loans under existing conditions.

In an interview Mr. Marcuse stated that this year had been by far the most Prosperous sea- son the firm has had, and that, 0o, in spite of the hard times. He attributes it to two ree- sons—in the first place, because Alameaa is a favored locality for homes; and, secondly, be- cause the tighter the money market the sooner do people of moderate means endeavor to get their own home, when abie to but the same, as a matter o: real economy. There is quite a building stir at Sunnyeide. Ten houses are now in course of construction, and among those being built or recently fin® ished are the following: Four-room cottage being built for G.
