The executive will meet John Brent guest speaker at meeting of Bluevale WI BLUEVALE — The March meeting of the Women's Institute was held at the home of Mrs. Mel Craig on March 11. John Brent was present to discuss real estate. He gave excellent advice on selling, buying, evaluation and mortgages and answered many questions. When.selling real estate an agent can prove very helpful as he knows comparative values; can find qualified buyers and is able to help with financing. He will also draw up an offer to purchase and, if accepted, it becomes binding. An agent is also helpful when buying because he knows property values in given areas, can advise on property available in the buyer's price range and has access to many properties. When buying it is ad- visable to have a lawyer search the title of a property and draw up mortgage papers. It is -wise to study a mortgage carefully and read the entire offer before signing. ,It is wise to check construction; workmanship, • wiring, heating systems and location before purchasing •Rea'# 'estate provides- the 'largest element•of wealth in the country.
