“In 1963 I built my first
total-electric apartment
complex. It was rented
before the roof was up. That
was a thousand apartments
ago. Today I have a
thousand new apartments
in the works. You can bet
they’re all electric’.’
What do people want most in a home?
“Comfort,” replies Jim Bible. “Whether you’re
talking about apartments or houses, comfort sums
the whole thing up.
“Take the heating system, for instance. People
like being able to control the temperature. They
don’t want to be bothered with maintenance or
repairs. So flameless electric heating systems are
the answer.
“Naturally a woman is more concerned with
details. She wants the kitchen and laundry de
signed for convenience. Because an efficiently
organized household is essential to her idea of
comfort. Here again, it’s the total-electric concept
that gives us the freedom to plan for her comfort.
“As a builder, my only real concern is to give
people what they want. Because when people see
what they want, they buy it.”
