SAYS LAWS ARE NEEDED

Writer Declares Public Should Be
Protected From Inscriptions
Realty Dealers.

One of the greatest needs Of the real
estate business is adequate legislation 10
protect alike the public and the legitimate
real estate dealer or agent from the
sharks" that infest the business to
greater or less extent in every growing
community, according to L. j. Bodman in
the National Real Estate Journal. 1t is
not enough for real estate exchanges or
bureaus, in cities, to debar the shark
from membership or to make rigid regu-
iations in regard to selling property un-
der any sort of false pretenses-even
though such transaction be not under the
ban of the law-because the shark"
cares nothing about membership in a real
estate organization. His maxim Is that

are told, one is born every minute. II
these advertisements did not b.Inw re

On the other hand, we may lind adver-
tsements in western papers or maya
zines of bargains in real estate thirty
minutes ride from New York, on easy
terms, IS or $40 month. and at absurdIy
low prices for property close to the ME
tropolis in which real estate is higher
than anywhere in the Tinted States;
there is no lack of those who viii swat
low the bait, hook and all.
Taking these two examples, il is per
fectly safe to say that in one case the
land is wholly unfit for orange culture
and in the other that the property on
the outskirts of New York is valueless
for building purposes-or any other.
How DO they get away with it?'' is a
natural question.
1t is simple. They make no actual
statement that brings them within the
law. One may descant at great length
and beauty of language or the orange
groves of Florida and then offer worth
as you do not say that oranges are
grown or can be grown on the property
offered. There is no infracton of the
law in this. And if the land you offer is
y fact within twenty minutes ride Of
New York city, there is no law to oblige
YOU to tell that it is subject to overflow
or that because of its topography or be-
ing situated close to 4 glue factory or
a fertiliEinf plant it is wholly unfit for
residence property and may also be unfit
for cultivation.

EXPLAINS RESTRICTIONS
PLACED ON PROPERTIES
Magazine Says Provisions Usually
Are Intended to Benefit
Adjoining Lands.

The ownership of real estate is often
subject to rights held by persons other
than the owner of the fee. These riShts
arc of many different classes, but those
most frequently encountered are restf1c-
lions. SAWS the Real Estate News.
!. restriction is created by an owner
Isuallv by deed for the benefit of land
adjoining or nearby, and usually oindS
the owner. his heirs and assigns either
not to erect certain speclhed KINDS Oh
buildings or not to use the lanu tof Ger
tain definitely stated purposes. 1t OFTEN
provides the first building erected on the
land shall be of stated kind ana ahaiI
not cost less than certain liked sum.
Such restrictions have. until recently
been usually so worded as to indicate an
intention to continue them in force IN
definitely or forever. but now they ar
frequently limited to fixed term Oh
wears and even permanent restrictions,
IN form and intent may lose their force
and effect as j result of changed cohol-
tons. and the courts have SO held.
\ restriction is enforced by SUIT III
edIity brought by the owner of land bene-
,ifed by the restriction against the owner
of the land subject TO the restrlctloh
praying for an injunction to RESTRAIN tne
defendant from using or permitting ti'e
use of his land in manner contrary TO
m. terms of the restriction. The court
usually grants a preliminary injunction
at once and will make 1t permanent I'M
less the defendant can show either thlt
the proposed use does not violate the re-
st-iction or that the conditions OF the
property have so changed ii would not De
equitable to continue the RESTRICTION In
force.
For example: restriction to private
dwellings will not ne enforced against an
owner who is about to erect n business
building if he shows:
I. That the neighborhood has ceased to
l,C residential in character.
:. That the property cannot De adVan-
laeeously used for dwelling purposes.
=. That the plaintiffs property will not

mont If the restriction.
These are the three main defenScs to
an application for an injunction to en-
force 4 restriction of this kind Any two
OF jh,. three will usually induce the court
to refuse the Injunction, whereby the re-
str.ctjon+ becomes practically vacated.
I;ut where an owner contracts TO sell MS
..rUpcrty free and clear, and it turns out
there is restriction of record against it,
The buyer can refuse to carry out the con-
tract, even though such state of facts
exist as would make the restriction I'M
enforceable. for it would require Il law
suit to determine the facts and their eff
feet and the buyer is not assumed to
have intended to buy a lawsuit.
