now getting as scarce as hens teeth.
An entire new branch OF the real
estate business has been created to
handle these transactions, with spe
cial brokers who deal in leases In
stead of deeds and trust companies
that safeguard the various parties at
Interest In another ten years the
practice will become nearly universal,
1t is asserted. st Iaast as far as the
most important property Is con-
cerned.
The concentration OF business in the
big cities and the enormous rise in
real estate values Is part responsible
for this. The capitalist or business
man who wants to put up a new hotel
or skyscraper does not always find It
easy or, convenient to sink cool
million OF two OF dollars in the site
alone. Instead he forms a syndicate
and buys the rights to use the neces.
sary property for period of 80 years.
for which he pays fixed rental usu-
ally increasing In amount every stated
number Of years. Deposits to insure the
carrying out OF the contract are put
In the hands of trust company. which
Is often called on to act as umpire
In cases Of unforeseen dispute, and the
owner of the land settles back In his
chair with the comfortable income for
the next century.
Probably the record transaction Of
this nature. says a Chicago writer, Is
lease that was made in Chicago
the other day for perod Of 1870 years
Leases for such a period as this
are not impossible. though they are
not the rule" said an officer of the
Western Trust and Savings Bank of
Chicago. which has played n leading
part In this development. "Thc usual
life of a lease Is SO years. and the
old custom OF revaluaton has been
largely replaced by provisions for a
sliding scale OF rental, whereby the
owner of the property is assured a
definite return which takes into ac-
count the probable increase In value.
In this way bonds can be issued with
perfect certainty and more and more
bond issues are now being made on
leases The trust company, with It's
stability and continued life, Is an i'm
portant factor in such arrangements.
Interest payments and usually insur-
ance premiums are paid through the
company, as well as deposits TO pro-
tect the lessons. and the transfer of
city property In these days usually ex-
poets that the lease will change hands
many times during Its life"
Actual figures Of the value of mod.
ern city property. based on. recent
transactions are an interesting COM
mentary on the growth of the country
In the last ten or twenty years. The
highest mark in Chicago was reached
about two years ago. when lot on
Jackson boulevard was leased ON the
basis Of $4,000 a front foot. Rem.
tails of 100000 year or over are
by no means rare. The rental Of the
new La Sale Hotel site, for example,
Is set at S90,S00 after the first two
years, which is considered low for the
property.
