1t is peculiarity Of property owners that
as soon as they discover q sale in their i'm.
mediate neighborhood they at once see
greater attractions in their holdings and
proceed at once to mark up values. Some
times the visit of prominent capitalist OF
broker to district will have the same
effect upon owners. They have sudden
visions of golden wealth, which in many
cases are not realized; for buyers, as a rule,
have at least an average amount Of common
sense, and see at once that values estimated
on the basis of what somebody else has
realized are purely fictitious Owners
desiring to sell should put fair price on
their property. BY claiming everything in
sight and exhausting the future they drive
buyers from the field. A great many deals
are tied up in this manner.
Condition OF the Market.
As showing the condition of the real estate
market, Messrs. Larkin & Kennedy said
that they had had more straight inquiries
and offers for property in the last two weeks
than in two months previously. They are
now conducting negotiations involving up
ward of S1OO, 900, some of which are ex-
pected to be closed in short time. Mr..
Larkin added: ''The reasons for this activity
are the abundance ofmoney and the difficulty
OF hndlng any other investment so safe and
SO sure of yielding good return, purchasers
reasoning that they not only get full value
for their money, but put themselves in a
position to secure the benefit OF early and
inevitable enhancement Several other
brokers talked in a similar vein. C. L.
Straub &, Sons said business had picked up
materially in the last few days
