Good Investment?
T illamook , O re ., J une 24,1912.
D ear R eader :—
I would like to interest you in the Drew Addition, and
would be pleased to have you make an appointment, and it
would give me pleasure to show you the unsold lots in the
tract, and I believe if ycu look into this matter rightly, that
vou will not hesitate in making an investment in this
addition.
This property appeals to me as being one of the best, if
not the best, real estate investments in Tillamook City at the
present time. . The reasons from which I draw this conclusion
are that the property is located several blocks nearer to the
business center than any other property in Tillamook that sells
at a higher price.
The Drew Addition lots can now lie bought for >400 a lot,
irrespective of location or individual merit of the lot, and the
terms are such that it would be very easy to make the pay­
ments at the purchase price of $400: the terms are >40 down
and >10 per month, thus giving the purchaser 37 months in
which to pay for his lot. I candidly believe that this property
will advance fully 50 per cent in value to the purchaser by the
time the final payments are completed. The value of this prop­
erty, as it appears to me, is caused by several factors that cre­
ate value. First, the main 10-inch pipe line, carrying the water
supply of Tillamook City, >s within one block of any lot in the
tract. This in itself is worth a great deal from several points;
first, it insures the property fire protection, and the full pres­
sure of the wacer system is carried on this main pipe. The
large number of consumers drawing water from the mains of
Tillamook insures a fresh, cool supply at all times, while if you
were on a small lateral, as in some of the other districts of the
citv that sell at a higher price, the water remaining in the pipe
any great length of time loses its freshness.
Another factor is that the property owners on Stillwell Av­
enue, which borders the western side of this tract, and the
property owners on Second Avenue East, which borders the
eastern side of the tract, have petitioned the City Council to
carry the street pavement from 9th Street to the city limits,
thus insuring street pavements between the east and west bor­
ders of this addition. This will advance the value of every lot
in the Drew Addition. If you are opposed to the street pav­
ing plan, or believe that you are not in a position to make the
payments on the street pavement, you have yet the opportuni­
ty to buy a lot in the Drew Addition where the paving ex­
penses will not fall on your property for some time, as the lots
in the center of the tract on First Avenue East will be only one
block from the pavement.
Another factor in the value of this property is that the
travel into Tillamook from the south end of the county, which
carries the Willamette Valley travel, passes within one block
of any lot in the tract.
Another factor is the fact that the permanent improve­
ments of the city, such as the new >30,000 high school building
and the present high school building, are only 5 blocks from
the tract and 6 blocks from the very center of it. The Tilla­
mook Building, where the Postoffice and King & Smith’s and
Haltom's stores are established, is only 8 blocks from the cen­
ter of this tract. Jones & Knudson Furniture Co.’s building
and the new hotel and such other improvements that are being
made on Third Street and Second Avenue East are only 8
blocks from the center of this tract.
I don't believe that you can make any mistake in making
an investment in the Drew Addition. I consider that the lots
are at least worth the money, as they are >100 a lot under the
market price of any lot that can lie Bought, which lots are lo­
cated farther from the business section than any lot in the
Drew Addition. There are several other factors in connection
with this property that appeal to me, and I would like to
have a personal interview with you and show you the proper­
ty on the ground. A much different idea is gained through a
personal inspection. It you will call me up by phone and make
an appointment, I will be pleased to show you the unsold lots
that remain in Drew Addition. I have several choice corner
lots left yet, which will not last very long. I will again add
that you can make no mistake by purchasing in this Addition,
as time is essential in this matter.
I would like to have you let me know at once as to wheth­
er or not I could consider you as an investor in this Addition.
With kind regards I beg to remain,
Yours very truly,
ROLLIE W. WATSON.
