spective purchasers milling
through the Chaplin st. home.
Both the Kellers and Allen
& Rocks were so pleased with
the happy outcome Of this
transaction, the building
firm has decided to put the
"trade-in" plan into general
practice. AS Of this date, sew
eral of the Keller's neighbors
have been able to trade the
equity In their old homes to
Allen 81 Rocks for more than
the required new home down
payment In Deer Park
Heights.
THEIR MAILING address
is not all that has changed
for the Kellers. Ten-year-old
Janet and 3-year-old Peggy
get their own rooms at last.
Janet is starting the fifth
grade in the brand new
Sandy Mount Elementary
School, adjacent to the COM
n1unity and looking forward
to fun at the new Benjamin
Stoddert Junior High right
next to it. Both schools can
be reached via a special
walkway, completely empty
Of traffic. Special buses in
the project take the students
to Oxon Hills High School.
So, money-wise, space-wise,
and for many more reasons
they are telling their old
neighbors about, the Kellers
are very happy TO say they
are now at Deer Park.

Heights and investigate the
possibility Of a new home in

Rocks firm, and left 1t up to
them. After q short illvesti-
CATION, Allen g. Rocks discov-
cred It could easily find a
broker specialist to buy the
old Keller house, and give
the Kellers enough cash to
move right into a new Deer
Park Heights home.
So, in effect, the Kellers
traded in their equity In their
old home for more than the
required down payment on a
new home. without any cash
outlay, and with a slight adj
justment in monthly pay
ments, the transition was
made.
The actual way the keller
plan" worked Is this: After
the Kellers signed a sales
contract and letter assigning
the proceeds Of the sale to
Allen & Rocks, the builders
turned the old house over TO
a broker specializing in that
particular area. No charge
for services was made by the
Allen & Rocks firm. The cash
proceeds from the sale Of
the old home were applied
against the new house, serv-
ing as down payment, and
after FILA approval of the
purchase, a simultaneous
settlement Of both old and
new homes was made.
In this way the KeIIers
never had TO worry about
getting rid" Of the old house,
or about occupancy deadIine
on the new house; nor were
they even bothered with pro-

HOW TO KEEP from los
ing the money that has been
put into an old home is the
problem facing many couples
who dream Of a new, larger,
more modern house In one
Of the handsome new houS-
ing developments.
Mr.. and Mrs. Tavern w.
Keller, who now happily say
they are formerly Of South
east Washington, had about
given up.
Their old home in the TT.
Dupont Park area was Just
TOO small for their growing
family - and too old-fasll-
toned, to their mind, after
frequent shopping" trips to
new housing projects.
But, houses were hard to
sell in their neighbOrhOOd
with at least two dozen "fOr
sale" signs up, and prices far
below original cost.
Like many other families
In the area, the Kellers had
seen the new three-bedroom
Allen e. Rocks Townhouses
in Deer Park Heights, Md.
They wanted one very badly.
The price of $4,000, with
only a $3.50 down payment,
and settlement guaranteed
not to exceed $3.50, really APP
pealed to them, not to mem
ton the other features Of the
house and the community.
Yet the fear Of being stuck"
