Every man who il the head of
family has somewhere in the back of
his mind a desire to own a home of
his own for himself and his family.
That this desire has not been grati-
fed may be due to any number of
things, but the one that prevents most
people from owning the house i'm
which they live is that they never
really started to acquire home.
For the average person, buying
home is considerable undertaking,
one that means the taking on of an
obligation that will require a number
Of years to pay. The investment looks
large and will probably require some
sacrifices, but once a start IS made
the satisfaction more than repays the
effort.
No man, however, should undertake
to buy a home that costs more than
it is reasonably certain he will be
able to pay for. This error lis the
reason that has caused many TO lose
their homes after a start toward own
ing them has been made. Good judg-
ment in picking the site and in erect
ing home that meets the needs of
the family and at the same time will
not require larger Investment than
can be handled, are two essentials in
successfully acquiring a home.
