Housing market chaos as 1 in 7 buyers pull out of deals at the
last minute rCo in chilling echo of 2008 crash
The housing market across the US is seeing a meltdown.
Would-be buyers are pulling out of sale contracts in shocking
numbers as their demands for expensive repairs and huge price
chops are not being met.
And sellers are mad they are even making these demands.
. . .
The bubble, more like a giant Hindenburg had to burst
pretty soon. Prices have become beyond ridiculous
Buyers, of course, are waiting for lower prices.
Sellers, well, thought you'd flip that crackerbox
for twice the money eh ?
Yep, same greed and gold fever as in 2008.
Nobody EVER learns.
