View ef the Question,
Tbo public bas no better frteada thu
tbo real esrste agents, slthouch la-
divlduaJa may sometimes tulnk that
utf are a trifle persistent tn their ef- '
forts to lailuce oue to soak a pur- j
tnasa.
la reality, however, this la whore
they do the greatest good, aot oaly for
the dty la which they lire, but for the
bud to. whom they oell property, sad
this Is especially true In the case of a
bomo.
The great majority of people at too
alow to realise the Importance of be
coming borne owners, and the-efforts,
of tbo veal estate dealers have. Induc
ed thousands to purchase who other
wise would have let, splendid oppor
tunities pans. v . .
It is especially Imports nt that an
young people become home owners at
the earliest time possible, because la
the strength of their youth they i will
have no trouble meeting the payments
on a home, end tn a few years they
will bave It paid for. On the other
band. If they fall to buy the yeara will
pass and flud them living up all' they
make. , ,
Because of taxes. Insurance and de
preciation many people figure that It
la cheaper to rent than to own a noma,
Out since the mun owning the proper
ty It willing to make that kind of In
vestment It Is pretty evident that ta
tbo long run It pays tbe owner. Na
