WEDNESDAY REALTY VIEWS "I don't even want to b there when you show our house for sale," remarked a mild-mannered, middle- aged lady. "Our iti5t0s3 house means a lot I 9 timentaf value. I a and t wouldn't i jSm- 4flS& I want to hear peo ple finding fault with it and pick ing it to pieces." That'. . T derslandable posi - tion for an owner. Fred Chti peopIe do get at. tached to houses and regard them with fond affection. Which is good! But it illustrates the need for a com petent real estate broker. Since an owner has only one property to sell he is often biased In his opinion of it. He probably does not know the latest selling prices on homes in afl sections of Medford. He may regard his house as a friend and hate to hear it criti cised. Or he may exaggerate its ad aptability for another family. But the real estate broker usually has a broader view. He is familiar with current prices and with many proper ties. The comments of a buyer are not resented. It gives him an opportunity to point out how the faults may be overcome or to find another property more adaptable to the buyer's require ments. We are specialists not In selling houses but In HELPING people BUY the kind of home which best matches their needs and pocketbooks. That's it in a nutshell! Let us help YOU to find a suitable home which you can afford. ALWAYS DEAL THROUGH A REALTOR. HOME AGENCY Realtors JOSEPH CHEZ, Iroklf I North UlrarllJ.
