The successful salesman OF real
estate, as we'll as salesman for any
other commodity. must know all about
the product he is offering and must
be convinced that he is benefiting his
client through making the sale, ac-
cording to J. Garrett Bethel, Wash
ington realtor, in discussing the SELL
ing Of homes at the fifth session OF
the real estate forum of the Wash
ington Real Estate Board Wednes-
day night.
In outlining the methods used in
selling homes, Bethel discussed the
many advantages which accrue to the
buyers of homes. not only from the
viewpoint of building up a reserve
through investing in the home but
also from the standpoint of creating
better citizens interested in the de-
velopment Of their community. He
stressed the point that the qualified
salesman must be in a position to
give definite and concise answers to
the questions which prospects ask con-
cerning property in which they may
be interested, and amplified upon GER
tain phases by the use Of charts COW
ering the computation of interest for
the period of the trusts upon the
property and the length Of time in
which they may be paid out.
Bethel stated that detailed ex-
plantations should be given every
client particularly covering the uses
to which the property may be put,

ments as well as a detailed statement
covering the settlement. The COM

RECORD RESIDENCE. f.
BUILDING IS SEEN
Addition of Living Units for
$500 Forecast in
DC. for 1887.

A total of 1900 houses and apart
ment units will be started in the met
ropolitan area of Washington during
1887, it is estimated in the current
issue of Washington Business Review.
This figure does not include the Green
belt thouSand-unit project at BerWyn
or the P. w. A.-owned Langston Ter
race project at Benning.
This would be the largest volume
of residential building in the history
of Washington. 1t would provide liv-
ing quarters for 37500 people, or about
Is per cent more than last year, which
was the previous high. During 1896
and 1887 private builders, according to
this estimate, will have erected houses
and apartments for almost 10000
people or for the entire population of
city as large as Salt Lake City.
AT the present time" Rufus S.
Lusk states in the review, the total
dollar volume of construction in
Washington is exceeded only by New
York and Los Angeles, but building
here is still below 1929, which is con-
sidered normal year. The reason for
this is the lack of hotel, theater and
office building construction, which
provided a considerable part of the
huge dollar volume during the middle
20s. 1t is residential construction
which makes Washington stand far
out in front as the No. / city in the
country in building today.
Indications are that the volume of
apartment construction this year will
considerably exceed that of home
building in Washington itself and will
comprise substantial part of the
residential building in the counties
Apartment construction, as distin-
guished from the erection of four
family flats, is rapidly forging ahead
in multi-family building. Now that
money is easier, builders are
erecting larger structures containing
20 to $50 units in building"
The review points out that this huge
volume of residential construction cam
