CONTIGUOUS PROPERTY

From THE REVIEW OF the
Society OF Residential Appraisers
come the following case histories
Property A sold in 1913 at S12,
500 when the market price index
was at 265 In 1850 Negro moved
next door There was a subsequent
sale in 1850 TO white at S13,500
which was an per cent increase
and represented 2s7 on the index
scale At the same time the market
index for the whole metropolitan
area moved down in those two
years to $50, a decline Of 10 per
cent.
Property b so.i in December.
i949 for $4,000 when the index
was at 232 II resold to Negro IN
August, 1861 for $4,000. an in
crease of 80 percent during the
period when market prices on an
average were advancing only 10
per cent to an index level Of
262.
Property c sold in October. 1919
for sil,50O when the index was at
232. II resold TO another white In
May 1851 year after the tn.
vasion" started when there were
several minorities In the same
block, for $4,000. This . per cent
rise represents about the same
increase as market prices gener-
ally, which had advanced II per
cent 10 level Of 25T.
Thesc cases arc typical for the
neighborhood cited There are
many others and they all tell the
same story Prices have tended To
advance more than In neighbor-
hoods unaffected by population
