Price Of Houses Scars;
Building Costs Up
Concluded from page y

ready for occupancy in the fall.
At the same time, Russell Triple
horn moved into the Fred Mueller
addition on jefferson street a house
he purchased on the former Milton
Pifer farm in Orange township, east
of Orange Center.
Remodeled Home
The house is being remodeled and
replastered, and will be ready for
occupancy within the next month.
Tripplehorn's home is the fifth in
the Jefferson street area which has
been moved in from country districts.
Two other home owners in other
parts of the town followed the same
procedure as one way to beat high
costs of building, but it is becoming
extremely difficult to find empty
residences in the rural areas.
In the meantime, the building sit
uation represents a paradox. Altho
there is a continuing need for new
housing Bluffton construction activ-
ity has petered away to virtually
nothing as materials remain hard to
get and prices keep on going higher.
Cut Costs
In the early part of the summer,
builders of new homes resorted to
procedures that resulted in cutting
costs wherever possible in an effort
to beat the soaring cost of construc-
tion. AS prices continued high, how
ever, the building program slackened,
then virtually came to a standstill,
with no new activity of any kind
coming in the last two months.
In many cases, increased costs of
building partially have been over
come by much of the work on the
house being done by the owner, with
some of his family pitching in as as
sistants. At the same time, the type
home being built is smaller in size
generally, as another means of con-
serving expenditure.
Increased costs which have hiked
the price of new homes also are re-
flected in higher prices for all real
estate in Bluffton, and houses al
ready built are selling at new high
levels.
Pre-war prices here for homes
ranged from $4,000 to $4,000, but
recent sales of real estate in the
same class of houses are spiralling
upward from the $9,O00-mark, more
than double the level prevailing prior
to 1941.
With little prospect for additional
building here this summer and fall,
the fate of Bluffton's building pro-
gram next spring is equally un-
certain. Should high-priced construc-
tion keep the cost of building home
at two or three times pre-war prices,
fewer new houses will be started than
if the costs of erecting a home fall
off over the winter.
