NAR Chief
Economist: All Things In Place to Create Mortgage Availability
Existing-home sales were down in August as tight mortgage credit curtailed
activity, according to NAR. However, NAR chief economist Lawrence Yun
urged consumers to keep in mind that the recent drop in interest rates is

recuperate.
