Real Estate is a Paramount Security
Do You Own It?
Since the earliest classification of securities, Real Es
tate has,held first rank as a paramount article, embodying
safety, tenure, and inflexibility of value.
Ground is not susceptible to price fluctuations like its
products.
We invest in the former to speculate in the latter.
Real estate is, at all times, the most worth-while in
vestment in which to place surplus money and the people
who make a worth-while community, be it village, town or
city, are the owners of real estate.
Economist authorities on the matters pertaining to in
dustrial and financial affairs, students of Real Estate values,
not of local, but of national repute, agree that following
the war development in all these essential lines must take
place on a scale never before dreamed of, bcause of the
greater demand from the balance of the world for the things
which only America can produce.
The followini statement by S. W. Straus, president of
Thrift Society, is interesting largely because of its bearing
on the ownership of real estate :
"Do you know that in the United States, of every 100
people that-'die, 66 leave no estate whatever, 25 leave es
tates valued at a little less than $1,300, and only nine
leave estates valued at $5,000 or more? Do you know that
at the age of 65, 97 out of every 100 people are dependent
wholly or in part on friends, relatives or the public for food,
raiment, or a roof under which to sleep?"
In the Straus statement, the nine estates referred to as
valued at $5,000 or more owed their existence to wise real
estate investments more than to any other one thing.
The big estates of Omaha, especially those that are
revenue producing properties in nearly every case are owned
by men or the heirs of men who acquired real state years
ago.
This real estate has never ceased to grow in value and,
therefore, increases the producing capacity of the estate.
The history of investments has been that the best prof
its in real estate were made by those who invested at the
beginning of some big era of prosperity.
Providence has never yet indicated in black and white
just when an era of prosperity would begin or end, but
history has repeated itself so often in this regard, that close
economic students are able to recognize the signs of a com
ingprosperous period.
The economic and business students say there is a
period of prosperity opening up now, destined to continue
for many years.
Real estate has made more fortunes for its owners than
all other investments combined.
One good investment especially in real estate is worth
a life-time of labor measured by dollars and cents.

cians' supply house west of Chi

Real estate' value, real and prospective, is based pri
marily upon the actual or possible use of the land.
People, by their presence on land, either in the city,
or county, or state, increase the values of real estate.
The value of real estate increases in proportion to the
increase of population in a county or community.
The reason for this is obvious.
No more real estate can be produced.
There is just as much of it now as there ever will be.
When the population increases there are more people
wanting this limited amount of real estate.
Even if the demand increases the supply does net.
This statement can not be made regarding any other
investment.
Aside from real estate, no matter what you invest in,
more of it . can be produced, as the demand for it grows
larger.
Omaha real estate values have increased primarily as
a result of the increased population.
The same statement applies to real estate all over
Nebraska.
Members of the Omaha Real Estate board in giving
reasons why they invest in real estate and advise others to
do so, lay much stress upon the safety of such an investment.
In telling why an investment in Omaha real estate is
safe they offer these four arguments:
Omaha Real Estate is SAFE and secure because
"(1) It depends upon the combined business judg
ment of all the business men of Omaha.
"(2) It is not dependent upon the action of any man
or board of directors.
"(3) It can't burn, blow away, go broke, or be stolen.
It can't be wrecked by a crooked business executive.
"(4) And the demand for it will always grow because
more people are coming to Omaha every day trying to get
it."
To prove these arguments of the safety of an invest
ment in real estate they cite numerous examples. A. C.
Crossman, in 1917, bought property at Thirty-eighth and
Farnam streets for $24,000. This month his estate sold it
for $35,000.
Classify your friends.
Take an inventory of the successful men you know.
Look at those that are rated high in the community.
Classify men that are happy, contented, making money,
not worrying about how to take care of their wives and
children.
You will find that they own their homes.
And then, take an inventory of men that are dissatis
fied, unhappy, discontented, worrying, unsettled, sore on
life in general.
You will find that they do not own their homes.
