Two-famiIy houses ere fast growing IN
popularity In the realty field. and the
demand for good houses Of this class is
increasing, according to reports from such
weII-establfshed dealers as Shannon &
Luchs. The class Of buyers to whom
such houses most strongly appeal is the
man or woman who is able to make q
small payment, and then to acquire the
home by monthly payments
Such houses range IN price anywhere
from $s.40o to $500 for well-buiIt and
conveniently planned homes for two fami-
lies. The strongest appeal comes from
the fact that the buyer is able to rent
one fat. and with the income derived
from that Is able to meet such charges
against the purchase as interest, insu--
ance, taxes, and water rent, leaving the
sum that he would himself pay in rent
70 apply to reduce the purchase price.
The sense o. security which comes to
"a buyer from such an arrangement is
proving to be a strong inducement to
buyers to take a two-family house at
5000 or 5000 IL place OF a one-family
house at even less money. In the history
of real estate buying in the city there
have been numerous instances of men of
small means who have acquired property
in this way, which they have afterward
sold and invested the proceeds In some
other form Of realty.
Realty dealers throughout the city say
that the activity in sales and rentals of
this class OF house is greater now than
it has been hitherto In Washington.
While 1t is the fayorite in New England
and in some Of the cities of New York
State, conditions that have obtained in
Washington in the past have directed
investments into the single-family house.
But these dealers say that there IS
much smaller percentage Of the two
family houses vacant or unsold In WASH
ington than OF any other type.
Builders have seen the strong set of
conservative investors in this direction,
and it is said that IT is more than prob
able that building operations In the fu--
tUre viii show the erection Of q larger
number OF two-famfly houses than ever
before.
With the improvements In plans OF this
style of house that have recently been
made, there Is greater comfort furnished
at low rent and all the privacy that q
single-family house has to offer for the
same or even a higher rental
Realty dealers are confidently predict
ing that the two-famiIy house is certain
to grow in favor with tenants. who are
investors, who realize that more can be
gotten for the money than In the older
type. The cheapness Of construction OF
two houses on one lot of ground Is ap-
pealing alike to builders and investors.
