Vets \flant New Homes to Cost

$7,183.00 Survey Reveals

A price of about $7,183.00 should buy a home that is convenient and comfortable, in the opinion of those eligible to build under the Wyatt Plan. This iact was revealed by a nation-wide survey recently made by Ponderosa Pine Woodwork, which for the past several years has been conducting such surveys in the interests of the industry.

The figure of $7,183.00 is the average amount which those eligible to build homes under the Wyatt Plan are willing to spend. Those rvho are eligible to undertake major remodeling under the Wyatt Plan expect to spend an average of $1,216.00 for such work, while those eligible for major home repair jobs expect to spend an average of $674.00.

Except among those planning home repair jobs, those respondents who are not norv eligible to start work in 1946-47 expect to spend more money on their own particular housing projects than do the eligibles. For example, the average price which non-eligibles expect to spend for a new home is $7,441.00.

9t.l% of all eligibles and non-eligibles believe that present building costs are too high, and there is very little variation in opinions on this point between the eligible and non-eligible groups. On the question, "Do you think costs wrill be lower within a few years ?" there was a slight variation of opinion between the eligible and non-eligible groups, the latter tending more strongly to the belief that prices, eventually, will be lower.
