NO BUYERS FOR HOUSES.
DROP FROM £IOOO TO £3OO. Houses built in Monmouthshire a few years ago at a cost' ranging from £6OO to £IOOO are now failing to find purchasers at a fraction of the figure. '1 he urban district councils of the, county have put up hundreds of dwellings under the llousinii Acts and the, ratepayers are now faced with the dismal prospect of seeing nianv remain unieiuintc'l.
Instances where £IOOO houses have found no buyers at £3OO and where £6OO houses have recently been sold at £l3O were mentioned at the Monmouthshire Urban Councils' Association recently.
