'/f0]jlilf0i, PLANS FOR HIM (Ill] 'fjiffllli, "What are some of the things, that I should look for in a: home?" is a frequent questiorr from house buyers. particularly those buying that first home. We decided to put the question: to a spokesman for the Canadi- an Association of Real Estate Boards. -uiiji, is I good question." he said. “It has made me think that perhaps may _ pepple are not quite sure of the kind of house that would suit them best, and that we - members of CAREB - have an obligation to furnish some guide lines." One of the most important considerations. ot course, is that a home must meet the space needs of the individual family. Does it have sufficient house- work, private-lite, and group-life space?” "We said that we knew thesel things in general but could he’ define them in greater detail? "uiiousework frea pertains to kitchen, laundry, storage, and maintenance facilities." he said. 77":I'he min-ant need, moreover. must be considered in terms of the future also. If you anticipate an expanding family. look for a house with a large kitchen." “If the family is small, for ex- ample, the wife probably would prefer a small kitchen to save her needless steps during the day. On the other hand, if the family is large, she and every- one else would find it annoying if the kitchen were so small that two or three persons made it seem like the walls were being pushed out, or that while eating dinner, Someone had to move his chair everytime it was neces- sary to open the refrigerator" "Laundering takes up a large portion of the housewife's time. Dirty clothes have a way of pil- ing up. Find t home with ade- quale space for washer and dry- er. It the house has no basement be sure it has a convenient. well- iloeated utility room," he told us. "Prxrtrably one of the most fre- 'quent complaints I hear from harassed housewives is 'There's not enough closet space.' Many ,nolder houses provide the answer to this need better than some of the newer ones." “Careful consideration must Ibe given to rooms that come un- der private-life spree: “This means bediam 'speaker sai .

"At the sum. time, you will 'probably want more than one bathroom. As many parenIs have learned the hard way, the race ‘for the bathroom in the morn- ‘ing usually goes to the swiftest -- who is not always the parent.
