STEADY IMPROVEMENT
THE LAND MARKET ESTATE AGENTS’ OPINIONS The present condition of tho property market and the question whether the general trend of values is up or down is one of almost universal interest and inquiries among leading Wanganui estate agents served to show there is room for strong difference of opinion, even among those who have most reason to know the facts. The general feeling is one of optimism and most of those consulted take the view that the worst period is now
past and that a steady improvement in the property business may be looked for. “I do not consider there is a slump,” said the representative of one largo city estate agency. “My opinion is that we have come from boom times back to normal.”* . “I think things are improving,” said another. “They are steadying up.” Another spoke most hopefully about country property and said his firm had very many inquiries for small one-man farms until trouble arose over the butter market in London. After that inquiries fell from two or three a day to about one a week. However, inquiries were beginning to come in again and there was evidence that the improvement of the butter market was giving more confidence to the man in search of land.
