REALTY PRICES
NOT ABNORMAL
]. E. Mccullough Says Rates
Are Merely Keeping Prog
ress With Growing City.

~The prices of Atlanta real estate are
in line with the general progress and
development of the city and its value
can not be overestimated." said ]. E.
Mccullough, Of the realty firm Of ]. E.
Mccullough & Co. to6ey.
There has been such a large in
crease in values for the past twenty
wears that many people seem impressed
with the idea that they are forced to
pay too much for property when they
buy it. However. the city has grown to
be one with a future to it since an
active trade in realty began over two
decades ago and this alone makes the
property more valuable.
"All investments in realty at that
time were more or less speculative, for
no one knew what Atlanta would
amount To- Now 1t is different, for
every one knows the city is the me-
tropcls of the South. Our resources
are varied and we are not dependent on
local or foreign conditions as we once
were.
The growth of Atlanta and OF the
whole South is natural and healthy and
the value placed on real estate in this
city is entirely normal"

PEACATREE

Westland Estates provides for the
man with small means who can save a
few dollars an opportunity to purchase
property in the direct development of
the city westward, with attractive fea-
lures in contract which no other real
estate corporation gives in the city Of
Atlanta, in that after ten payments
Nave been made and the purchases
should die, the property will go to the
estate without further question and a
warranty deed be issued. There are no
taxes and no interest charges.
Southland Estates Corporation. in
whom the title for Westland Estates
rests. has Offices at sos Third National
Bank buildi1e2, Atlanta
The crying need of all this section is
a street car line out Gordon road to at
least as far as Stratford and proba bly,
to Adamsville. A committee of prac-
tically all of the residents Of that sec
ton has been organized, with ]. j. West
as chairman, for the purpose of dis
cussing with the street car people the
necessity for the extension of some line
from Battle Hill to Stratford. At this
point there is at least five miles Of
territory untouched by car line. and
the building up of Westhaven and
Westland a t Peyton and Gordon roads
has brought he attention of the street
railway officials to this locality.
No section of Atlanta can give to the
home buyer purer air. better building
sites more natural beauty or better
community of citizens than the West
End. and particularly Westland Es-
tates.
