July at the National Hous-

The all-day session, which
is being chaired by Lewis

the factors a builder must
consider In embarking on a
project, such as equity fl

The field is a rapidly ex-

criteria are needed.
Last year there were only
six States with legislation
enabling builders to con-
struct condominium apart
