Greatest Livability
Is Home Problem
In Least Area

A major problam in planning
low-cost homes is now to obtain a
maximum amount of privacy and
INABILITY within a minimum area.
The INABILITY of any house, is
dependent upon adequacy of room
areas, relationship of rooms for
privacy, circulation within and be.
tween rooms, room exposures,
and equipment for comfort and
convenience.
MANY POINTS INVOLVED
There are many fine points in
volved in the designing Of low
cost homes, and on these rests
to a great extent the cost of con-
selves along this line before start
struction. inexperienced persons
would do well to educate them
ing their plans since many of
these money-saving devices are
fundamental.
WASTE SPACE HIT
Economy in planning also is re-
the elimination of waste space,
especially hall areas, inclusion of
rooms planned for dual purposes
where possible, and rooms whose
shape and wall space permit the
use and arrangement of essential
movable furniture in a minimum
floor area.
Economy is planning also Is re-
lated to the structural elements of
the house and the installation of
the mechanical equipment, espe-
cially heating and plumbing.

Doors, Windows
Require Planning

The location of doors and win
dOws have an important bearing
on the houses exterior appearance.
These are a matter not of cost
but of fore-thought as to their ef-
feet on the exterior.
Through proper spacing and
grouping of doors and windows,
a simple rectangular house can be
given character and pleasing varia-
tiOns from its neighbors.
Corner windows may often be
used effectively to obtain wall
space In small rooms. Where win
dows should not be placed too
near the exterior corners as this
has the effect of making the struc-
ture appear weak at the corners,
where 1t should appear strong and
solid.

Down Payments
Show Decline

Recognition of the soundness of
FILA standards is indicated by the
consistent decline In the original
builders and buyers under the FILA
down payment made by home
| plan.
Over two-thirds, 66.8 per cent
of the new home mortgages ac-
cepted for FHA insurance in 1910
represented from sc to 80 per cent
of the total property valuation.
Moreover, only SO per cent Of the
1910 new-home mortgages covered
less than rs per cent of the prop
erty valuation, an extremely sharp
decline from the 4S.4 per cent in
1895, according to the FHA's Sew
enth Annual Report. In 1888, the
maximum ratio of loan to value
for new-home mortgages was
raised from 80 to 80 per cent.
Typically, under the FILA plan.
the 1910 new-home buyer mort
gagged his home for 81 per cent of
Its valuation, compared with 76.1
per cent for 1885.
The report also reveals a de-
cided preference on the part of
the home owning public for the
long-term mortgage. particularly
those covering new construction.
Some 63.8 per cent of the new
home mortgages accepted for FILA
insurance in 1910 were to be
amortized over "a or 25-year
period, the maximum allowable
term. This represents a sharp in
crease over the 48.7 per cent fl
gure for 1889 and the Alb per
cent for 1888.

Gus systems of home financing"
Proof of the soundness Of the
FILA plan, Mr.. Ferguson observed,
is seen in the fact that 94.4 per
cent of the new homes on which
mortgages were insured by FHA
during 1910 were valued at less
than three times the annual in
come of the borrower.
Records of the FILA show that
more that 20 per cent of the bor-
rowers under the FHA program
acquired properties valued at less
than $4,000 during 1910. The me-
dunn family income of the pur-
chasers Of new homes last year
was $2,3S*1.
