The Price of Land

Over the years, the price Of
land in our country will go up.
Over the years. the pay
checks of workers in our hous-
ing and allied industries will
go up.
Over the years. we also may
expect that construction will
become more efficient, building
codes will become more SEN
sible, the prices of at least
some building materials will
stabilize or even become a bit
cheaper.
Yet, over the years, the
chances are slim that these
trends will be sufficiently pow
erful to Offset the climb in
land prices and in labor costs
in the housing industries and
that thus we will be able to
avert increases in the prices
Of new homes.
Is there much point in watt
ing to buy land and to plan
building Of your home in the
hope that prices will decline
enough to matter to you,
therefore?
No.
This week, I spent a couple
Of provocative hours at a
luncheon conference with Perry
Prentice. editor and publisher
OF House & Home. and his
staff.
We skirted around a lot of
Subjects-for instance, the diff
ficulty of financing a home
purchased in this era of hard
to-get credit, the disturbing
growth Of costly second mort
cages.
Finally, I put this question:
If we agree that the i'm
mediate outlook is for cut
throat competition in the hous-
ing industry and for stable
prices of most building ma
terials. don't you think a per-
son who wants to build a house
might be wise to waltz"
The answer was a resound-
ing NO.
Mr.. Prentice picked up my
question, shot back.
Even if prices of materials
going into a house decline
temporarily, the uptrend in the
price of the land on which the
house is built will more than
absorb these and other possible
savings"
And then the men around
the table elaborated.
Each year our population is

growing at a rate Of more than
5000, 900. meaning we're adding
the equivalent of a city larger
than Boston every IL months.
AS Mr.. Prentice put it:
1T took us nine generations
to house 80 million people on 8
million square miles Of land.
Now. in one generation, we pro-
pose to house an additional 30
million on 10000 square miles
of land"
Throughout the first 81 years
of this century, the price Of land
has risen persistently-and that
includes the devastating coll
lapse of the '30s and the pauses
during the recessions Of 1949
and 1858.
There may be a pause again
in 1858 and perhaps beyond,
but there's little reason to be-
lieve that the long upswing in
land prices will be reversed in
the balance of the goth century.
