A Real Estate Mans House"
You hear a great deal about the substantial old house; about
how much better people built years ago; how everything was
done by hand; how ruurh better materials were used, and so on.
As a matter of fact, there are no better examples of build
ing knovrn than the houses which are built today by the estab
lished real estate men of a city like Omaha.
"The Ileal Estate Builder" has made the building of house
his profession. By syslematlzlnK his work and using the most
modern methods and machinery he is able not only to build you a
better house than those put up thirty years ago, but he Is able,
to build it In one-third the time and at considerably less expense.
Some of the materials used In the old houses were unneces
sarily heavy and expensive. The up-to-date real estate man knowa
how to get quality and strength without being wasteful.
You will rind that (he houses built by the real estate men ar
alftnys in the very latest style to the smallest detail because the
real estate man must Veep in close touch with what the publlo
is demanding.
Building laws are very stringent now and every house must
be soundly put together. But the established, reliable "Real
Ksiate Builder" Is not satisfied with only keeping "within the
law." He is building the very heft he knows how. Hit future
Is slaked in every house be builds. , ,
You are at liberty at any time to go through any of the
houses being built in every part of the city by representative
real estate men and inspect for yourself the quality of the work
and materials.
A walk about sny of the newer sections will convince you
that "the reHl estate man's house" is enjoying a decided popu
larity.
