Saturation ' Point : In Good
Residence ' Construe-)
f tiori not Reached
i Has j the saturation ; point ra
yailable desirable homes in Ba-
lem been reacnecT . .
That Is a Question which the
lire real estate dealers, as well
as the thinking people who have
been seeking houses, are hegin-
ning to ask - themselres. In . fact.
for the prospective, resiaeni ibi
becomes nowadays " pressing, if
not irltatlng, question;- .
The plain - situation , is simply
this:-There are very few good,
modern homes to be had -here.
especially when it is a matter or
renting. . One. dealer, among the
ton realtors In the, city, declared
yesterday that his office had on
its rental - listi omy - one goou
home, in a good location. An
other dealer drew - forth a sise
able list of houses to rent, but
admitted that not one of the
houses was eren a' top second
class dwelling. - i . 1 .
Ilonsee to Rent :;.;' : : :,
Not Nameroas) -rv-YV- -
E. B. Grabenhorst of the real
ty company bearing i that . name
asserted that there Is' a great
scarcity of good houses to rent,
and said also that there are real
ly, few-first class houses foi sale
here now. , f - , i-
Questlons to other realtors
and real estate dealers brought
forth about the same : answers,
and from nearly all sources there
was Indicated an optimistic, tone
for the spring -and summer busi
ness In property. . More property
is 'changing- hands than at this
time last j year, or eren a few
months ago, and more money Is
being used in deals.
Granted tnat there : are ; lew
good homes to be rented one
dealer showed a waiting 11st
with fire Tenters 'names on it
what's to be done?
That's a query that is not as
I easily answered. - .:
Build more houses or tne
modern type, with basement and
furnace, and build them In parts
of the city where people want to
make their homes. That is the
answer of. one group, who add in
the same breath a caution
against orer-building. . -
The time Is ripe for more
modern houses, and ; since they
don't come on Christmas trees,
the way to get them Is to bulla
them, according to one general
view. '
But - ,
"Go easy." says another group
of men and women who deal in
houses and lots. There are plen
ty of old houses in . both desir
able and undesirable locations,
all the' dealers assert.
Want to Rent: ,,
Older House ; - 5-
And it Is on these older, long
time vacant houses : that stress
should be laid right now, say
the realty men who are looking
to the future.
"Get the owners of old houses
interested in remodeling their
dwelling and bringing them up
to modern, specifications - by In
stalling modern devices, renovat
Ing the inside and outside and
making the building into a com
fortable 'new home," offered one
realtor. i
This man pointed out that It
would be deplorable to Jump Into
building program without
cleaning up : old houses, or . In
other words that remodeling will
take care of the situation better
for the .next six months or so.
Loss of use of the property, va
cant because of appearance. Is
only one item to be considered
on tne unwanted nouse score.
The other is continued payment
of taxes with no return at all. ;
Over-Built Status
Is mot Relished
Better so into new construc
tion easy, and not face; the de
pression and over-build ed situa
tion that bobbed up a few years
ago and bothered land and prop
erty conditions here up until
comparatively , recently, was this
dealer's advice.- , ' : -
A few new. well located; well
built homes right now would be
all right, ' but not too many, a
summary of the two " somewhat
divergent opinions would - read. ,.
At their last meeting, only a
few days ago, Salem contractors
association announced that the
association was going to launch
a - progressive remodeling pro
gram; and should this bear fruit.

shape with ah open porch attach
ed at one corner. This porch
serves as an entrance porch as
well as a living porch and can be
enclosed with glass during the
winter months.
There is nothing expensive
about the exterior . treatment of
the house and all materials are
simple and durable, requiring lit
tle attention or repairs for years
to come. The roof is covered with
slate in various colors; the side
walls are of stucco in a rough
texture with gable ends of Irregu
lar weatherboards laid with wide
exposure to the weather. The
porch columns are of heavy hewn
timbers mortised and tennoned
together and. held by wooden pins.
The windows are steel cottage
casements. The chimney is built
of over-burned brick laid in an
irregular manner.
The house has been so planned
as to fit well on a plot having a
f rontage of forty-five feet, allow
ing space for driveway. The
floor plans show six rooms and
bath all of which are conveniently
and compactly arranged. All
rooms have cross ventilation and
plenty of light. There is an attic
which is reached by a movable
stair from the second floor hall.
A cellar extends under, the entire
house and contains the heating
plant, . laundry, etc.
The house contains 15.470 cu
bic feet and would cost approxi
mately $5600 to build.
Complete working- plans and
specifications of this house may be
obtained for a nominal sum from
the Building Editor. Refer to
