In the last issue Of 1.-THE Real Estate Record
and Guide there is article on the Recording
Tax law by A. c. Pleydell. secretary Of the New
York Tax Reform Association. He says in that
article that the records of mortgage loans III
this city show that, as predcteu' III" iNeCo'u'''S
Tax law has attracted money to the mortgage
market and reduced interest rates. For eight
months from July I. 1906. when the law went
into effect. TO March l. 1907. the average rate Of
interest stated on mortgages recorded in Ne"
York County was 80 per cent For the c"rTe-
spending period under the annual mortgage tax
Law tho average rate was I,A per cent, or about
40 of | per cent higher.
considering the state Of the money market
and the increased demand for capital IN other
lines this decrease i'm the mortgage interest rate
Is an excellent showing for the new law; and
the amount of money loaned was nearly twice
large under the annual tax law
