Present ; oupqn ORTLAND'S prospective home buyers now have an opportunity such as has never been offered them before. Q In the original an nouncement of Ladd Estate Company on March 30 was the statement: "The fullest measure of assistance, consistent with good business, will be given to the responsible purchaser who comes to us in good faith desiring to build a factory, warehouse or home, but who is without sufficient funds to carry his project to completion, by arranging financial assistance," etc. i Since that timeihe Ladd interests have established a special fund and worked out a plan based on the same schedules as the famous Pratt Thrift, of Brooklyn, New York; with the same object of encouraging people in the building and owning of their homes by substantially assisting them in the purchasing of homesites and the financing of home construction. v The most prominent features of this plan are: 1st Lower interest rates 6 interest J2d. Longer time up to 10 years. t3d. Increase in percentage of loan as high as 80. Through the Ladd Thrift Plan, sums m . . f 1 of any 01 our nomesites wno desire 10 The amount loaned will be determined by a loan committee and will be based on the cost of the property and the proposed home, the amount never exceeding 80 per cent Loans are repayable by monthly payments. The period, which determines both the number of monthly installments to be made and the amount of each payment may be decided by the borrower. Loans will be made for as Ions: a period as ten , years. The monthly payments, if made as pro vided for, will fully cancel principal and interest within the term of the loan, and on the payment of the last installment the property will be free from all claims under the mortsragre. of reasonable amount will be loaned at 6 interest to purchasers build homes for their own occupancy. scmcDirLB of ran piutt THRIFT.

This is the great advantage of buying your home under the Ladd Thrift Plan. It is better than the ordinary mort gage, which, when it falls due, must be paid in a lump sum. If borrowers, from adverse circumstances, are un able to keep up their payments, the Board of Di rectors will, after three years' payment of install ments, entertain an application to suspend fur ther payments for a period not exceeding twelve months and will deal equitably with such applica tion. If at any time a borrower wishes to pay off the entire loan he may do so by paying the balance remaining due, together with a sum of money equivalent to three months' interest upon such amount.
