To those not fully acquainted
with local real estate conditions. B.

During the summer months" he
says. there is always great
amount OF preparation for the usual
autumn real estate rush and the
selling end OF the business Is given
somewhat of rest while these
preparations are being made.
"As soon as the new subdivisions
are placed on the market In the
fall. nearby property and practical.
ly ali-outlying property rapidly ad-
vances In price. Because of these
conditions. II becomes Immediately
apparent that those investors who
wait until autumn to buy sub-divi.
sion lots must pay the increase
rather than the present prices.
"Our concern Is year round
