Tin: REAL ESTATE MARKET.
llciiuous jTictvi iiiiiiui n juinii) uivuijMnrlcvt
S?nm Qui?t.
The following from an oxchnnge applies
with equal force in Wheeling:
There is a complaint among the
brokers that owners of real estate are
placing too high a value on their holdings,
and that this makes sales slow and
gives color of dullness to the market,
whereas the demand is really good. It
is always interesting to note the difference
in value the owner of real estate
irives to the tax assessor and that which
lie gives to the agent that is to sell the
property for him. One can readily understand
the owner's appreciation of
the values in the different cases, nevertheless
the suspicion is well founded
that he goes to too great an extreme in
oueorboth cases. It seldom happens
that there is less realty on the market
than there aro buyers; on the contrary
I the very opposite is usually the case.
| Buyers are therefore in 'a "position to
I make the best selection and have a
voice in fixing tho price and terms.
Tho opinion is prevailing generally that
real estate is sure to increase in valno
permanently, that owing to tho liability
of fluctuation in stock and other securities,
real estate is the safest and best
basis of wealth we have, and in anticipation
of a "boom" based on these facts
owners are not fluxions to sell excoptat
a still" price. There rati be no surer way
to check snlos and injure business thai)
this; actual sales are the life of the business
and are the only real evidence we
have of values, except it bo that of
rentals. Brokers depending on commissions
as payment for their eirorts in
negotiating sales and stimulating actiyity
generally cannot look kindly on the
proposition to increase values uniustifl[
ably, and all such efforts should l?e discouraged
as being inimical to the best
intnrc.Hls of tho business.
