ESTATE
MARKET SLOW
Few Paying Sales Wer.
Made This Week
Building at a StaHdStili-SeYe
Small Houses to be Erected Onl i
The Vest Side

The real estate market during the pa
week was very dull All the real esta
brokers unite in saying that this sizes
the situation. There was no such thir
as selling high priced property and the
were few sales Of any kind. Those hous,
disposed of were not what are known
paying sales. They were bargain sale
the owners selling the properties becau,
they could not hold them longer.
1t was reported that money was vei
light. one broker said this morning tn,
although number of houses changJ
hands last month there was not mud
money in the sales for the agents.
one thing that is worrying the broke
Is that they cannot meet the demand fC
good small houses. OF course they ha'
some houses but they are not the kin
the well-to-do mechanic is trying to ren.
The outlook for relief is not bright. q
stated before I'm this column the strike
the painters and threatened strikes
other trades has had much to do wiz
preventing building here. Besides ma.
sng It very indefinite as to when contrac.
can be completed the strikes have q
creased the cost of labor. People thinl
ing OF building will not do so with n
increased cost Of labor staring them
the face.
Another thing that is having a bd
effect ON building is the uncertain cond
ton of the assessment. Many increas'
have been made over last years asses
ment. and about 200 appeals are pendir
before the Board of Appeals II Il
board decides that the assessments mu
remain 1t viii have the effect of retardir
building or at least cause a general Il
crease in the price Of lots.
Building Inspector Cassidy reports tn
the week was very quiot one with hir
He did not issue a permit for new bull
ing and there were few permits for r
pairs or additions.
1t was announced today that Charl
Blocher would build five or six houses
Second and Scott streets Permits f
the building have not yet been asked.
Linton & Co. will build several hous
at Twenty-third and Washington street
The owners Of the Montrose tract, {
the Delaware, report many sales and
is expected that the new owners Will b
gin TO build some fine homes.
Those who have not visited the 81
+ should do so as soon as possible.
the fair weather continues tOmorro
it is expected that all the lots will
sold. Agents will be on the groul
all day. One reason for the wonderf
sales reported from Montrose is Z
= fact that the lots are sold on the ca
payment plan. This makes it possit
for anyone to buy lots there witho
feeling a heavy drain on his pock'
book.
