The following appeared in a letter sent by a committee of homeowners from the Deerhaven Acres to all homeowners in Deerhaven Acres. 【2】
"Seven years ago, homeowners in nearby Brookville community adopted a set of restrictions on how the community's yards should be landscaped and what colors the exteriors of homes should be painted. Since then, average property values have tripled in Brookville. In order to raise property values in Deerhaven Acres, we should adopt our own set of restrictions on landscaping and housepainting."
1.Brookville 的地价升值可能是由于当地的房产供不应求,或是有人做房地产投机生意而导致的。
2.Deerhaven即使改变庭院年布置和房屋外墙颜色,也不能导致该地的房产升值。
3.Brookville的地产增值即使由于改变了形象了导致的,也是在七年前,现在情况不同了,Deerhaven而言,居民审美观和价值观也有所变化了,也许以前只要外表美丽就可以吸引人来,现在更关心生活质量,小区公共服务设施的齐全,便利,人文气息,都会提升当地的地价。

The arguer concludes that Deerhaven Acres should adopt the restrictions on the methods of decorating the communities from nearby Brookville community for improving their average property values. To justify this conclusion the article's author notes that average property values in Brookville community has been increased since the means of planning the communities have been adopted. However, reveals that it lends little credible support to the arguer's claim.
First of all, what led to the improvement of the average property values should not be limited to the restrictions on how the how the community's yards should be landscaped and what colors the exteriors of homes should be painted. Maybe the demands and supplies are imbalance in Brookville community. If the demands are over high than the supplies, then average property values might be enhanced. Or maybe some people manipulate the market of real estate as speculators. All of these reasons will make the property values increased.
Second of all, there is no evidence substantiate this assumption of Deerhaven will get the same results like Brookville community. The population in Deerhaven might be much larger then Brookville community which means it is easier for the later to change image to absorb new buyers. Moreover, Deerhaven might be a protection area and any changes will decrease the property values. In addition, Deerhaven might be in rural area, and it is difficult for people to get there and the traffic system is not well. Even Deerhaven complies with the restrictions like Brookville community, property values might be still at the same level.
Finally, years passed and the preference for new buyers changed. Maybe a few years ago, the decoration of the communities could make new buyers enthusiastic. At present, the qualities and conditions of living seems to be more important then the home programming. A community with all kinds of public services, good humanism, and sound environment will get the property values raised. Fro modern people, convenient communication and new style design also increase people’s interests. It is a trend that a high quality living community will dominate the real estate market.
In sum, the recommendation for raising property values in Deerhaven is not well supported. To convince me that the proposed restrictions can enhance property values in Deerhaven, the author must provide clear evidence on why Brookville community can make property values tripled. To better evaluate the recommendation, the arguer should also emphasize on that Deerhaven has some advantages on the improving the property values.
