RECOMMENDS NEW
BASIS FOR RENTALS
Accountant Would Use Is Per
IN Cent. of Owners Capital
Il Investment.

Using the current market valuation Of
residential property ass a basis for de-
termination OF a reasonable rental IL
considered unjust BY NJ l.. Seidman Of
Seidman a. Seidman. certified public ac-
countants. who. in a letter to Municipal
Court Justices Morris and Shell, recon-
naends that In its place the courts shall
fix Is per cent. rental return on the
capital investment as q legitimate profit
for landlords. Mr.. Seidman's letter to
the Justices follows:
I'VE note your disapproval of the de-
cision rendered In September by the APP
peilate Term In Brooklyn to the effect
that landlord Is entitled to a return Of
his property. While you do not use the
impracticability of the decision az
reason for your disagreement, we want
TO point out that using the current mar
ket value as a basis for the determine
tion OF rental is not only unjustifiabls
but impossible. M a
"The market value OF any piece of
property is necessarily fixed by its in
come. A piece OF property that has
rental income of $4,000 will have fair
market value, ordinarily, Of twice the
amount as a piece Of property the in
come from which Is only $1,000. The
point we wish TO make is that the mar
ket value depends almost entirely upon
income. and that fixing rentals upon
market value Is equivalent to a dog
chasing It's own tail. For the minute
rents are raised. inconfl increases and
market value Increases. calling inme-
diately for another rent increase. This
process can be kept up indefinitely.
There is no doubt at all but that the
fair basis OF return Is on capital in
