BUYING AT RED BANK
Development Manager Tells Of
His Selling Method.

The coming OF winter shows no aba:e-
ment OF activity at Red Bank Estates,
where development work is going on with
wonderful impetus, behind which unusual
condition is the policy recently determined
upon by r. Bradley Cox, general manager
This policy, briefly. is to absolutely dis
regard the seasons as they affect bust
ness. Mr.. Cox. in q recent interview,
said:
The reason that more real estate ism t
sold In the late fall and winter is be
cause most real estate men lapse INTO
sCmnolence during these seasons. Iney
take for granted, because the days are
cold and snow sometimes covers the
ground, that people won't venture out 10
see suburban property. In my opinion,
no greater fallacy exists.
The home seeking instinct is not con-
fined to any season. 1t is ever present,
and only needs awakening by constant
suggestion. BY suggestion ] mean moth
ing else than advertising-thiS. and con-
scientious follow up.
II is the lack OF such suggestion in
the winter months that Is responsible Tor
the depression that Is generally felt IN
real estate circles at this time The real
estate business is no different from any
mercantile line in this respect. And what
do the department stores do In the SO
called ON seasons? They make greater
selling efforts than at any other time
They advertise TO greater extent. Ana
why not7 The values they oner then are
greater. II anything, than when their mer-
chandise II more In demand. surely tho
need for II is no less. And so IL is WIN
real estate.
In winter ! feel that ! can offer more
for the money than when the regular
season is on. Quite naturally so. For
then the property is free from heavy
development expense. and there Is greater
choice among the more desirable sections
and greater time for the purchaser 10
consider their worthiness. SO that's why
propose continuing my selling cam
paign, even with greater effort than ordi-
narily, throughout the entire year. And
In so doing II liz my belief that my
motive won't fail OF its appeal TO every
prospective purchaser In and about the
CITY of New York. In fact. i have ample
evidence to date that my method IS a
long ways from being wrongly taken.
In support OF his contention Mr. Cox
announces the following report Of recent
sales at Red Bank Estates: villa plots
