Just as it became normal for Americans to buy a new car every year, it was no longer unusual for Levitt house owners to buy a new house every year. This is American cumsumer culture at its best.
The Leveys rented a 1948 model and bought the 1949 Levitt model. A year later they ordered the 1950 model en sold their "old" house for only a few hundred dollars less than what they had paid for it. When the '51 model arrives, they might consider moving again.
