Rensselaer Republican, Volume 23, Number 8, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 23 October 1890 — Cheap Lots. [ARTICLE]
Cheap Lots.
The rapid growth of our town has heretofore been very much retarded by the fact that the vacant land and lots surrounding town has been owned by non-residents and held at prices which were not justified by the size and prospects of the town. Realizing the fact referred to, a company of gentlemen have formed a corporation known as the •‘Rensselaer Land and Improvement Company,” whose object is to furnish to buyers, lots at reasonable figures. The company now owns 238 lots in all portions of Rensselaer, which will be sold to suit purchasers, in price, location and terms. If you desire a lot or a home don’t hesitate because you have no money. The Building and Loan Association has plenty of money on hand with which to build. Why pay rent when you can own a home? o Chicago is but 50 miles from us with its millions and quarter of people, and the fact that Rensselaer is destined to be considerable of a town is undoubted. Did you know you can get a home for the same amount that you pay out month after month in rent? Parties desiring lots can call on or address any of the following gentlemen: Alfred Thompson, Wm B. Austin, M. L. Spitler, J. T. Randle, Addison Parkison, Geo. H. Brown, Sr., or H. O, Harris. J
