And the title pretty much sums up the article. With all the uncertainty in the financial markets, buyers are feeling very skittish about where things will go, and therefore are very slow to react when it comes to making one of their biggest financial decisions. The article was quoted as saying, "October's pending sales fell more than 27 percent from the same month a year ago, and dropped nearly 26 percent from September." Though the (2 comments)
