Real Estate Most Valuable Commodity
In World, Says M. J.Luchs in Forum Talk

Selling Real Estate" was the sub
ject discussed before the Realtors
Forum at Wardman Park Hotel on
Thursday evening by Morton j. Luchs,
vice president and treasurer of Shan
non & Luchs, Inc. This meeting was
the largest held since the Realtors
Forum was instituted. early in the
Fall. Real estate was pictured to be
the most extensive and valuable com
modify in the world, and in introducing
the seriousness of the profession this
point was particularly stressed.
In his lecture Mr.. Luchs said prac-
tically every real estate deal involves
thousands of dollars and in MANY
cases the homebuyer parts with the
savings of Il lifetime in the most inn
portant transaction that he has prob
ably ever undertaken and about which
he is frequently unfamiliar with his
rights and obligations 1t is important
that one holding out to the public his
services as a real estate broker or
salesman must be iInbued with the
seriousness Of the responsibility that
he assumes In practicing real estate.
Mr.. LuChS outlined to the members
of the board present the most up-to-
date professional methods to be fol
lowed in successful craftsmanship in
the real estate field. He pointed out
that confidence was the foundation for
all business and that this must be &C
quired in order to develop successfully
in any business endeavor. Among
various ways of inspiring confidence
in clients and the public are factors
pertaining to the person and person
ality of the salesman. Personal tidi-
ness, promptness, clean habits, en-
thusiasm and an inherent desire to
serve invariably instill in the mind of
the one to be served a feeling of re-
spect that grows to the point of con-
ftdence. which is the first step in sell
ing. Manners and actions express per
sonality, consequently one desiring to
