DWELLINGS NEED QUALITY
Substantially Built Homes Always
saleable and Generally at a
Good Profit.
CHEAPER TOO, IN THE LONG RUN
BY LINN p. CAMPBELL.

u LINN IA MfbtlNl4.
The average buyer of residence prop
erty doesn't consider the possibility of
an advance in value. In fact, It is safe to
say that not one in fifty buys with that
end in view. Generally, when a man buys
a home the attractiveness of the house,
the plan. the surroundings or the lot in
fluences him i'm his selection Or. perhaps,
1t is some special feature in the house
that catches his good wife's eye-for,
after all, the women rightly decide before
the deal is made. a mirror in a closet
door. glass door knobs and white enan-
eled finish. a built-in kitchen cabinet. a
large shade tree in the front yard. such
things as these have really sold houses.
OF course the price enters into the cal
culations before the sale is made. for the
present-day home buyer is pretty well
verSed i'm the cost of average sized dwell
ings and IL not such information can
readily be obtained from architects and
contractors. The value of the lot can
also be ascertained on inquiry at the as
SCISSORS office or from some one ac-
quainted with real estate prices in the
neighborhood.
So, all things being equal, II generally
happens that the adap tability or some spe-
ciel feature of the dwelling bought
nearly always tips the scales in its
favor as against a cheaper one or one
that could be made to do.
Contrary, however, to the general inn
preston, quite few home owners realize
n handsome profit on their properties be-
sides having lived in them for a year or
two.
To prove this will give a few instances.
Last July we sold a residence in the
Hanscom park district for 50 500 and re-
Gently resold, 1t for $500. The owner had
the use of the property for nine months
l know of another owner who refused
an offer OF $500 profit after owning the
property but five. months. and still an
other where a man bought a 1900 home
in one OF our new subdivisions and was
offered 500 for his bargain the next day.
Here is one you may doubt, but I'll tell
It nevertheless. for it is a fact and the
lucky owner has the money in the bank
Five years ago / sold a six-room new
residence in the west part of Omaha to
a friend Of mine for $500. The house had
just been completed, but the lawn and
surroundings were rather unattractive.
The buyer had faith in that particular
locality however, and later events proved
his good judgment. The street was subse-
quently paved and vacant lots were i'm
proved by the erection OF several beauti-
full homes. Two years ago my friend
asked me to sell his house and in a
month I found a purchaser who paid
him $500 for samoa profit of 1880
And still he had occupied the house as
his homo for three years. Popular belief
70 the contrary nothwithatandinR there
are numbers OF sales in Omaha residence
property made every year in which the
seller makes a handsome profit In buy

CHANGES AT A BUSY CORNER
High and Costly Buildings to Be

MONEY MADE IN THE DEALS

How that will change the face OF

clamation Of business men and real
estate men alike, when commenting on
the fact that everything between Farnam

etively snort time.
This comment is, of course. occasioned
directly by the closing of the ninety-nine

hands so rapidly as 1t has in the last
few weeks. IT is true that the Board OF
