The Hill Section of Brooklyn
Has Numerous Opportu-
mites for Spectators
and Investors

The real estate situation in Brooklyn
has improved so much that the more sat

From nearly all districts, according to DE
Hart Bergen, president OF the Real Estate
Board Of Brokers. 81 Brooklyn. encourag-
ing reports have been received. Not only
has the trading in various kinds Of prop
critics increased. but the number OF Inn
uortant rentals is greater than il has been
for q long time.
Opportunities for safe real estate in
lestments are everywhere 10 be found
throughout this growing residential aud
business borough Of the greater city. Mr..
Bergen Is not AT All surprised at the eX-
tent OF these chances for profitable pac-
Ing Of money in real estate ia the Dor

numerous persons who pose as being in
touch with the real estate situation TO see

ever. does not expect these opportunities

The benefits that Brooklyn will derive
from the dual subway system. Mr.. Bergen
adds. will be almost innumerable. and will
undoubtedly result in the transition of
the borough into more appealing one
