The Premier .Investment-u

To a great class of sound, conserva-
tive, substantial people who, fortu-
nately, form large proportion OF the
population of the United States, mort
gage investments have always made a
strong appeal. Whether these people
admit it or not, they seek safety first
OF all in their investments, and are will
ing to sacrifice some hopes of glitter
ing speculative gains in order to obtain
safety. With safety assured, they enjoy
seeking and obtaining good bargains in
che way OF liberal interest returns, for
many of }hese people are good judges
OF property values. Sometimes they
seem to possess a sort of sixth sense
for property values and mortgage in
vestments. In the long run they have
the laugh on the speculative folks who
put their money into risky, speculative
ventures, in the hope of making quick
profits. Over a long period OF years
the mortgage investor can show a
handsome rate of return on his money.
whereas even people who are &C
counted successful spectators can only
show. too often, some 2 or 3 per cent.
Thousands OF them go broke" COM

Another Great Investor

Another great investor in first mort
cages is the building and loan associa-
ton. There are more than 5000 such
associations in the United States with
a total membership numbering more
than 100000 persons. The total as
sets of these associations, constituted
almost wholly of first mortgages on
real property, now amount to approx
mately $2,500,000,000. There could be
no better indication Of the safety and
other high investment qualities of first
mortgage securities than the fact that
these great financial institutions such
as banks, insurance companies and
building and loan associations have
placed billions of dollars of their money
in first mortgages.
Banks and insurance companies are
experienced buyers of mortgages. They
employ experts who make careful in
vestlgation to prevent investment
losses. Today the individual investor
IS in position to invest his money in
first mortgage securities with equal
safety. There are reliable firms of in
vetsment bankers who make it their
business to select good mortgage paper
and sell it to their clients. In many
cases the client relies absolutely on the
bankers good judgment and honesty.
Under these conditions, mortgages can
be bought with perfect safety by the
most inexperienced people. But be
sure that the banker is man or firm
of high integrity and unquestioned
ability. &is>s-~s'Ss.,r,,
= For reasons which will be explained
in later articles, the South offers a
higher rate Of interest on mortgage Sc
curity than most other sections of the
country. but with no sacrifice of safety.
Recognizing this fact, people all over
the United States are, at the time l am
writing, pouring hundreds of thousands
and millions of dollars into first mort
gages and first mortgage bonds, chiefly
the latter, secured by property in
Southern cities. These investors are
selling an opportunity to get 7 and
TX per cent with complete safety.
Mortgages were popular as invest
Tnents long before corporation stocks
and bonds were heard of. The intrinsic
souRdness of the security was early
established, and today mortgages are
bought and held by people who would
not think of touching. anything else.
Their rules for testing the investment
are simple. The security must be
first mortgaa s--that is, it must be a

While individual investors are more
and more approaching the high merits
of first mortgage securities, these Sc
curities have for many years been
favorites with such experienced invest
ors as banks, insurance companies and
other institutions which possess hun
dreds of millions OF dollars for which
safe and profitable form of invest
ment had to be discovered. These in
situations, to which safety is forever
the watChword, found that the first
mortgages offered the only safe and
profitable form of investment for the
vast amounts of other peoples money
which they had on hand. According
to the latest available statistics, banks
in all states throughout the United
States own more than $3,600,00O 900 of
first mortgages on real estate. The
life insurance companies of the United
States, which are recognized to be as
sound and stable as any institutions in
the world, have more than s., 300,000,000
of their funds invested in first mort
cages. The amount owned by life in
surance companies is increasing year
by year.

Investing Away From Home

The writer, when he started in the
mortgage business in Miami, Florida
1 good many years ago, had good op,
portu1ity to observe the habits o.
mortgage buyers. They would conn
10 Miami as tourists or visitors would.
be impressed with the possibilities O.,
the place, and would take Miami frs.
mortgage back home with them. TIL,
interesting part of it was that the,
E"ould Immediately become missionaric,
i'll their home communities, preaching
the merits of Miami mortgages, until &
little colony of local investors in Miami
securities would be formed. Many Of
these people are still buying Miami
mortgages and first mortgage bonds.
Mortgages, considered with regard
to the kind of property securing them.
fall into two main classes; farm mort
cages and Gity real estate mortgages.
In the present series of articles we will
not have an opportunity to discuss the
former class. Mortgages on city real
estate range in amount from the ST ,00G
lean on small residence property tol
the loan of hundreds of thousands OK
even millions on large apartment build i,
ings, hotels and other commercial
structures. Mortgages on the latter
class, of course, are too large for any
individual investor to consider, so Al
plan was evolved of splitting these,
large loans into smaller parts for dis,
tribution to individuals in convenient
amounts. This plan will be discussed
in detail later ons
The mortgage of moderate amount
on an individual piece of property
usually runs from five to ten years.
Bankers who sell these mortgages to-
individuals usually make it their busi-i
ness to look after all legal and technical
details, such as appraisal of the prop
erty, payment of taxes and Insurance.
supervision to prevent deterioration,i
collection and renting of interest and
principal, etc. In this way the field
of mortgage investment has been wild i
ened until the investor in California;
can buy mortgage on Southern prop
erty, three thousand miles away, and
be perfectly sure of what he is getting,
provided he deals with the right sort
of banker.
