CLEAN UP AND PAINT UP

AAllAC ANoSAs <1k ne
ct is not surprising that
3 houses which are for rent
should be without tenants, be-
cause in most cases such houses
are unpainted, the steps are
rickety and the porches not in
repair.
The number of vacant houses
in any city is largely due to the
negligence Of the landlord him.
self. | recently took two ladies
out, trying to find for them de-
Sirable six or Seven-rOOm house
to rent. / was unable to find
anything to suit them, either on
my own list or on the lists of
other real estate firms, and
these ladies were not eXacting
in their wants. They were shown
few houses of the desired
size, but the houses were not in
good condition. Il is true that
some of the landlords say they
are willing to make certain re-
pairs for good tenant, but it
has been my experience after
years in the business, that it is
best to put your house in attrac-
tive shape first and you will
quickly get q tenant.
Houses that are kept re-
paired and painted not only
rent better, but they greatly i'm
prove the looks of the city.
