The present is a favorable time to
invest in Delta county property. We
say favorable, because the prospective
market is a rising one. Property prices
are far from having reached their limit
and the resource foundation here makes
values as solid as a rock. In such
field of investment there is small if any
chance to loose, while substantial
profits are practically sure.
