Ethics in Realty
Covers Big Field,
Says j. L. Weaver

Ethics when applied to real
estate means more than right con-
duct in the practice of the pro-
fessfon, John L. Weaver told the
real estate class at the Y. NJ. c. A.
1t includes a broader duty In the
study and development of civic
matters sub as taxation, coming,
health conditions, building, and
assisting in the general develop
ment of the city.
The distinction between a real
estate broker and a real estate
dealer. it was pointed out. is that
a broker in serving a client sets
up the legal relation of principal
and agent, and in this respect has
certain serious obligations which
put him in a different class than a
dealer who simply buys and sells
for his own account.
Mr.. Weaver. in referring to the
activities of the National Associa-
ton of Real Estate Boards, of
which organization he is past
president, stated that the establish
ment of real estate courses by local
boards throughout the country was
a forward step in elevatinS the
real estate business to a profess
sional plane. While such course
Goes not qualify one as an ex-
perienced broker. it does instill in
the minds of the young men and
women entering the real estate
field a realization of the serious
responsibilities of the profession
and the need for special training
to become expert.
Real estate boards in oo-opera-
ton with State authorities are
making marked progress in elimi-
mating the inexperienced and dis
honest broker through the enforce
ment of model license laws that
are restrictive both as regards
qualifications and practice.
The special real estate course
will close with the meeting next
Tuesday at which Harry K. Boss
will address the class on the sub
ject Development of a real estate
business"

M'KEEVER & COSS
NOW HAVE OFFICE
in new YORK CITY
Open Branch Department
To Afford Their Clients
Better Service.

In order to render more efficient
service to their clients. the firm of
Mckeever and Goss has recently
opened a branch office in New York.
Formal announcement to this eff
feet was made this past week by
the Washington office.
The New York office Is located at
No. 2. Rector street. and is in charge
of Arthur S. Wolpe, formerly of the
Washington office. The new Office is
very well located to serve the in
terests of the investing public and
should fill need often expressed
by Washington people who are in
terested in New York real estate.
1t is the idea of the firm in open
ing this branch office to pay par
ticular attention to the handling of
business and investment properties
in Washington. During the past
two years McKeever and Goss have
built up a large clientele of New
York investors who are interested
in the purchasing of property In
Washington. 1t is the desire of the
firm. and its intention that the Of
flee in New York will not only IA
cilitate the handling of this kind of
business but will enable the firm
to render better service to it's CHI
ents.
The opening of this office has al
ready brought much interest from
Washington people who own prop
erty in New York and several of
them have already turned over the
handling Of their New York proper
ty to this firm.
According to r. L. McKeever. the
investment possibilities of Wash
ingtOn property are attracting much
attention from the outside, as has
been evidenced in several recent
sales. such as the International
Building on F street and the sale
OF the Chastleton to the Dupont in
terests. Mr.. Mckeever believes
that the opening of a. New York
office and the advertising of Wash
ingtOn properties in the New York
papers will tend to crystalize the
opinion of investors in favor of the
opportunities that Washington real
estate presents.
