TRADING IN REALTY
SHOWS FALLING OFF
Business of Week Not Up
TO Standard Set by Pre-
viouS Seven Days.
MANY TRANSACTIONS
HANG FIRE, HOWEVER
Biggest Building Project That of
100000 Apartment House
for Park Road.

While the real estate market has
shown activity during the past seven
days. generally speaking. it has not
come up to the standard in point Of
sales set by last week 1t IS seldom
that there are two consecutive weeks
OF heavy sales, even under the most
1lourishing conditions.
While the actual number OF trans
fers has shown q decrease, dealers
state that they have been as busy as
at any time since the beginning Of the
year in showing property to prospective
buyers. This has included business as
well as city and suburban property Of
every class. \ great many deals are
on the point of being closed.
Only two apartment houses were sold
this week, as compared with six during
the preceding periOc, and the highest
priced residences disposed of did not
get above the $4,000 mark. Several out
dying tracts of unimproved property were
transferred, but in the majority OF cases
they consisted of small lots and no large
amounts were represented in the sales.
4 Where investors are disposing OF re-
Gently built property. the desire seems

than accept cash for three-fourinS OF
its value.
the flood of outside capital again
made itself felt during the week, ana
was interested in several of the trans
actions. Money is plentiful at per
cent and, apparently, a great deal OF II
is being secured at this rate for build
ing purposes.
TIE taking out Of a permit for the
erection OF a 100000 apartment house,
at Seventeenth street and Park road,
for Harry Wardman. constituted the
biggest building project set on loot.

Of fifteen houses on Oak street. be
tween Holmead avenue and Fourteenth
street, Columbia Heights, which have

chase price was $4,000.
Another unique feature OF the sale IS
that each Of the fifteen houses was Sc
cured by a separate purchaser, the ma
jOrity Of the buyers intend TO occupy
the property as homes. In cases where

eral OF the dwellings have already
been rented at prices which will pay a

teCt a. H Beers, and built by Harry

siVe colonial pOrches. All have large
cellars. In each are tiled baths. laUn-
dry tubs, and servants quarters Most
Of the lots are twenty-four feet wide
In the case OF the eight-rOOm houses,
the selling price was SC250- The six
room houses brought 5000 each.
The property represents one Cf six
squares Of residences which Shannon &,
Luchs offered for sale at different times
I during the past ten months.
The phenomenal selling can be traced
20 tho growing popularity OF that sec
tiOn OF Washington a. desirable resi-
Dental locality. and the additional fact
that IL is located at the Fourteenth
street car line.
The frI states that an additional
! tract Of ground adjoining this square
has been acquired, upon which will be
erected several eight and siX-rOOm
houses. Several buyers have already
secured options and will purchase the
houses as soon as they are built.
