SALE OF HOUSES
[to the editor.] Sii', —Apparently we are not getting a fair go for the sale of our houses, and. local builders and valuators agree on this point. Some think that the Government officials are under orders to cut down all private property as low as they can. Valuations arc supposed to be calculated on the 1942 building costs, but they are even going below this. 11 is bad enough Io out down from 1945 to 1912 price, seeing that they cut your section value down to nearly nothing and knock heavy depreciation etc., off you. This applies especially in. a case where a buyer is not a returned soldier.—-Yours, etc.. ANTI-STATE LANDLORD.
