Home Owners
Remodel To Beat
Condemnation

People are spending money or
their homes these days in order tc
make money with them and to save
them from condemnation proceed
1ngs, is the report of Arthur Field
an, president of the Home Rehabili
tation Corporation, 1928 NV 18th
ave., who notes that sleeping
porches and bedrooms intended for
rental purposes or to accommodate
growing families are being added IN
great numbers at this time as are
inside bathrooms.
With the threat of condemnation
of many homes which do not have
indoor bathrooms, homeowners in
this section are taking advantage
of the lower cost of building ma
terials to make alterations and ad.
ditions which will comply with the
law, he stated. The addition of a
bathroom can often be made with.
out too much expense. A closet next
to or close to the kitchen is the
ideal location as the plumbing lines
will be closely associated and the
need for extra piping minimized. A
study of the sewer and plumbing
lines which run under the house
may suggest other inexpensive To-
cations, he suggested.
With FILA terms SO liberal most
of these improvements, additions
and repairs can be made with no
down payment, Mr.. Feldman said.
People can take as long as So
months to pay for these, with small
monthly payments the only require
ment.
For those who plan to enlarge
homes to meet the needs of their in.
creaSing families or to supplement
their incomes by renting a bedroom
Mr.. Feldman advised that the simp-
lest way is to enclose a present
porch with jalousies. thus convert
ing it into an extra sleeping room. !
When additions are necessary, first
floor extensions are most economi-
cal.
The overall price OF building ma !
terials has decreased approximately
Is per cent since the end of the |,
war. Mr.. Feldman explained. With
the return of costs to more normal |
levels. property owners are making
long needed repairs and. additions
which were Impossible during the
war and the three pears following
due to shortage of materials and
the resulting prohIbitive prices
Lumber. nails and cement have
shown the biggest price drops.
Cement block is also cheaper, he
said.
