Details on the company’s two new lines of houses, the Ranger and the Cadet, were explained. The Cadet line, heralded as private enterprise’s answer for low cost quality-built houses, is a line of complete homes produced expressly for the average work ing man and young married couple. A two-bedroom Cadet, in cluding an $800 lot, will sell for $5,500 with $300 down and ap proximately $36 a month. A four bedroom model, which will be sold for $6,100 including an $800 lot, will require $400 down and approximately $39 a month. The mortage term of 30 years makes the Cadet line well within the reach of anybody making $45 a week, according to Mr. Gilg. The Cadets, in spite of their extremely low cost, contain the same high quality materials that have characterized National Homes for more than a decade. 1 The Cadet line is an entirely new conception of prefabricating i houses and incorporates many features elsewhere found in ex tremely costly dwellings. The ; houses feature the open beam | construction that has become j America’s most popular house style. The low pitched roof with wide overhang on both front and rear, a new grooved wood, siding and huge picture window are all j incorporated to give the houses I an attractive low rambling ap pearance. Floor plans have been | carefully designed to save many I steps and features the open plan living. North Nebraska Builders is procuring land for the develop ment of subdivisions which will include large lots, water, utilities and sewage disposal, and will have the Cadet line open for pub lic inspection in the near future.
