NEW RIVER FRONTAGE LOTS

For the first time in years we are able to offer
river front lots for sale through the purchase of
another large river farm.
If you have tried to buy small tract Of land on
the Shenandoah River you are aware that such
tracts are not available. The first river lots at
Shenandoah Farms were sold out in wks. They
are now re-sellng at double the original cost
We have divided river frontage land on the Po-
tomac Broad Run Farms-700 acresl, on Goose
Creek Goose Creek Farms-700 Acres), on Broad
Run and lately on the Shenandoah Each OF these
river tracts has enhanced in value-double, triple
and quadruple the initial cost. The basic econo-
mics is Simpe-the population is increasing rapid
ly but river frontage is decreasing at an alarming
rate-through sales and government seizures for
recreational facilities. Near metropolitan areas
such as Washington and the megalopoliS Of Bos-
ton to Richmond-the economics of holding for
profit is compounded in favor of the purchasers.
River frontage for private ownership will be vrtu
ally unknown Just few years from now.
The Dept of the Interior has stated that the
disappearance of river frontage from the market
through private purchase is alarming! That
crisis exists and that the government should and
would purchase large frontageS for public domain
We offer them to you as private domain.
We are the largest river developers in Northern
Virginia. We have been the largest for over dec
you the public. We know of no lot in our river de-
velopments that we would not gladly have bought
back after few years. Our lots have increased in
price as we stated and we will gladly prove it to
you by reference to our accountants records and
resale figures. For more than decade we know
of no, repeat no, river lot that we wouldn't buy
back today. We believe that you are guaranteed
not only the finest recreation in the world, but
also safety of investment with unusual profit po-
tential. We know of no other form of investment
to compare with 1t.
In addition you are part of Shenandoah Farms
you get all itS recreaton-new swimming pool
boating, fishing hiking and all these facilities be-
long to you-without any additional cost such as
membership fees or annual dues. After we finish
developing and selling, these facilities will be
turned over to the buyers free. We will maintain
them until such time. These facilities are built
now, not promised. The permanent use of the IA
ciities is worth the price Of the land.
First to come gets first choice. Prices are rea-
Sonable and we will finance them ourselves.
