A Feeling of Confidenca S: ms to Prevail Ameng P.rsoas Idsntifi:d With Prnpsrgy Interests. Agents continue to report an improved out- look for the real estate market, though mat- ters have not yet assumed that rosy hue which accompanies & brisk movement in realty. There isa strong holding on the part of real estate owners, so that bargain-hanters have circumstances against them. A feeliug of con- fidence seems to prevail among persons iden- tified with property interests. People who are buying & home by monthly payments care little for the condition of the market. Large and wealthy operators are apparently less con- cerned as to whether brices move up or down. It is quite certain that some of their prop- erty will ve sacrificed. They are satisfied that real catate will pay good Interest on the cost price, though it may take a little longer time to realize than expected. On every hand in this City bultding is in progress. Street improvements of no small magnitude are being made, while much land 1s being graded and put in shape for huilding, which & few years ago was as inaccessible from the ceuter of the City as is San Jose at the present time. And on these newly graded lots homes are being built for people in moderate circumstances. Without reference to any one particular neighbornood, any one who will put ina day iding or walking about the ouflying sections will sce hundreds of houses of this cla s in course of construction. When werkingmen are buying homes for their families and builders are putting up houses to sell on long credit, the promise for the future is zood. Flat houses are also noticeable by their fre- quency, and it is remarkable how quicklr they are rented. People want to live in houses with the more modern sanitary ar- rangements, and owners of old. dilapidated structures are being compelled to rebuild if they desire to hold their tenants. Alittle attention on the part of owners to outside appearance and within fixings, with some changzes in plumbing end drainage, would likeiy have contented many a tenant and saved owners more or less 10ss 1n the way of rents. It pays toimprove when times are dull, and this fact, perhaps, is the best argu- ment to capital to’come out from the cash- box or hiding-place. As to the building of new houses, 1t can al- most safely be said that there is no danger of suitable structures remaining idle after their completion. The City will move forward, her commerce will grow and expand. while' her population s likely to 1ncrease in numbar sur- ficient to satisfy even the most pronounced optimist. The most important sale effected during the week in local realty was the property situated on the southwest corner of Van Ness avenue and O'Farrell street for £60,000. The lot has a frontage of 120 feet on Van Ness, extending from O'Farrell street to Olive avenue, and a depth of 178:6 on O'Farrell street. There aro three dwellings on the Van Ness avenve front, worth sbout $5000. There is a vacantspace 0170x120 feet in the rear on O'Farrell street. Segregating this portion and deducting the value of the improvements, Madison & Burke, who were the brokers, estimate the price naid for the Van Ness avenue froutage ai§340a oot.
