Big block sale talks hinge on who pays commission
A large business property transfer remains stalled as buyers and sellers haggle over who covers the real estate commission. A $150,000 cash bid for a prime inside tract is reported, but a decision on commission payment is delaying the deal. The Polk County Homestead company sale was called off due to notice irregularities, sparking renewed interest and several smaller deals as buyers expect reofferings. The market for town lots has been slow, with high construction activity and renewed inquiries into northern Minnesota stump lands and Canadian wheat lands. Domestic land speculation and equity shifts continue amid cautious activity as buyers monitor forthcoming public offerings. Meanwhile, a separate long-winded feature discusses religious dress, with Mr. Hubbard advocating Christlike attire, tying biblical references to a white cassock and gold girdle, and defending personal eccentricity in dress.
