Realtors Will Tell Haas
Some Virtues of Omaha

The Omaha Real Estate board is
looking forward with much interest
to the visit Of Henry P. Haas, presi-
dent Of the National Real Estate
board. Mr.. Haas is a young man, very
prominent in realty circles in Pitts
burgh, and a realtor who handles
large deals. To promote some of his
suburban property he built a 100000
railroad. To forward the interest Of
the national association, after he was
elected president, he organized COM
pany and took over the National Real
Estate Journal, capitalized it suf-
fciently to make a prosperous and in
teresting periodical and removed it to
Pittsburgh. Mr.. Haas will be in the
city on Thursday, April IL, and be-
cause OF his visit the meeting Of the
Omaha board will be held on Thurs
day instead OF Wednesday.
While Mr.. Haas is here he will be
shown the city and at the meeting OF
the board where he will speak, he will
also hear as to the real estate pros
perity Of Omaha. Among other things,
he will be told that never in the his
tory Of the city was there more
activity in close-in property than now,
barring OF course the inflated boom
Of 1886 to 1890. He will also learn
that the Omaha board is one OF the
oldest organizations of real estate
men in the countrj, having been
organized in 1887, and that this board
is also a charter member Of the Ma
tional association. The Omaha board
is looked upon by the leaders Of the
national organization as one Of the
most deeply interested associations Of
realtors in all the country.

The model six-room bungalow
which is offered as a special feature
this week is one recently built for
H. l.. Seward at 1884 Victor avenue,
by the Willis Realty company. This
company offers to purchasers plan
whereby they may have house de-
signed and built to order and the pur-
chaser may have his individual ideas
carried out through the entire con-
struction Of the home. The company
is able to offer a house built-to-order
on the same liberal terms at which it
is selling houses already built.
The bungalow today is unique, in
asmuch as it contains six large rooms
on the ground floor. 1t is difficult to
design bungalow Of this size with
out covering so much space that the
price is prohibitive. This plan has
been duplicated for another pur-
chaser, with the front bed room con-

So Says E. H. Benner, Who
Negotiates Deal for Corner
Property There.
ORR MOTOR FIRM TO BUILD

The Nebraska and Wyoming In
yestment company, of which Conrad
H. Young is manager, has just bought
The southwest corner Of Twenty

A building is to be built on the cor

Motor Sales company, which will
make that place its distributing point
for Packard cars for the entire state.
E. H. Benner believes that Harvey
street is the coming automobile dis
trict. This DEAL" he said, SIS i'm
portant in the influence it will have
in fixing the automobile district OF
Omaha. There has been some doubt
as to where the automobile district
should be, but those who have studied
the matter are convinced that Harvey
street offers the best opportunity for
growth"
Busy Boom Is On.
The E. H. Benner company has
been active in this vicinity for some
time. This company sold the south
east corner OF Twenty-eighth and
Leavenworth streets, where the Levi
& German livery barn recently
burned. The sale was made the day
after the FIRE. The present owners
are now prepared to build here for a
satisfactory tenant. The Metz prop
crty on Twenty-eighth street was also
recently sold by the E. H. Benner
people to the Omaha Real Estate
Trust, which company will hold il
awaiting the future development Of
this section.
"The development there is gaining
Roadway every day." said Mr.. Ben
ner, "and it will not be long before
the former homes of the Metz. broth
ers will be removed and a substantial
improvement will take their place.
Other business is looking toward this
location, and it will not be long be-
fore Harvey street and Twenty!
