First, such work requires pre1im-

approval before it can become ac-

Second, such work involves re-
location of many workers, re-rout-
ing of materials, and coordination
of thinking.
Some areas of the country will
suffer more than the Washington
area. 1t appears now that, during
1852, there will be sufficient Gov
ernment and emergency work in
this vicinity to absorb much of
the slump. The downward trend
is likely to continue into the spring

the Washington area, according to
the Census Bureau figures, and
with the inflationary trend it
would seem that the best hedge
against imitation is still the pur-
chase of a home.
MANY Realtors are worrying
that two factors will have a ten
Idency to slow down real estate
transactions for 1852.
1.-THE first of these is the VOL
untary credit controls suggested
by the Federal Reserve Board, in
which practically all lending agen-
|cies such as bankers, trust COM
|panies and building associations
are cooperating.
"These controls limit the first
mortgage obtainable on used
property, with the result that
many sellers are requiring larger
cash payments than otherwise
might be required. With 4 per
cent financing for both new and
used homes for veterans practic-
ally non-existant, sales in these
homes will be materially slowed
down unless there is a change in
the money market. Some people
believe that such a change will
take place early in 1852.
Another factor which cannot be
disregarded it%@tils tendency of
many owners of used property to-
ask prices equal to reproduction
cost of the property offered for
sale. In other words. many owners
do not believe that a house 10 toI
20 years old has had any physical
depreciation. This is unrealistic
and will be fact in slowing down
the volume Of used property sales.

Sales of used houses continued
strong this year but credit con-
trolls and tendency of owners to
have an unrealistic idea of the
value of properties they would like
to sell may slow up sales next year,
Edward R. Carr, president of the
Washington Real Estate Board,
said today.
| Mr.. Carr's statement, prepared
for The Stars real estate section
as the year was coming to an end,
pointed out that housing construc-
ton dropped in this area during
1851 by almost a third.
He said it was his personal be-
lief that volume of sales for new
and old houses would be off by 10
to Is per cent next year, with new
construction down possibly as
much as 80 per cent.
Permits and Dollar Value.
His statement follows:
During the past IL months,
permits for housing construction
in the Washington Metropolitan
Area covered 1889 family dwell
ing units.
"The dollar value of all housing
construction in the area runs
above $163. .436,136 The effect of
credit controls and restrictions on
the use of metals is shown by COM
pairing the 1850 figures with. those
of this year. There were 25,303
housing units authorized with a.
permit value of 1904, ,644,475 inI
1850. This means a drop in 1851 of
almost third. !
Real estate continues to be an
active commodity in the Washing
ton area. Figures covering the
number of deeds recorded daily
are only available for the District
These are compiled by the Wash
ington Real Estate Board and

buildings. generally. do not seem
to have progressed much design
wise. Designers of stores, shop

commercial structures seem to
have either had more freedom in
executing their designs or were
bolder in their conceptions.
"In the field of housing and res
idential construction the gap be-
tween good and bad design seems
to have widened and, unfortunate
ly. the bad seems to over-balance
the good. ,-..s... @
Several large apartment prof.
ects were completed last year
which could properly be con-
sidered to have design merit. Our
suburban areas continue to be
covered too much with badly
planned and ugly houses.
THE best results, unquestion-
ably, have come from the combi-
nation of banker. developer, build
er and architect working as a
team from the first dream of a
project to completion.
Generally speaking, there
seems to be a need for continuing
efforts toward greater structural
refinement and design progress in
all building and especially in the
housing field" g. E-E&Iu II

there is a constant demand for
both residential and investment
property and unhalted pressure
toward higher construction cost.
after weighing all these fact
ors, it is my personal belief that
the total volume of sales, both
new and old, will be at least 10
per cent to Is per cent below 1851.
New construction will probably be
considerably less than 1851, pos
sibly as much as 80 per cent"
