You guys, our buyer wants to delay closing. At some point he was looking for loopholes in the contract to get out of it and take his good faith money too. I am so pissed beyond belief. He only put in $500 (instead of the typical 1k; we figured he needed to save his cash for closing). He waived the inspection.
We stand to lose our new house if we can't close. I am soooooo livid!!!!! I need to go find a kickboxing class or something to let go of my anger and frustration. My ILs couldn't help with DD last night. DH and I really need to talk without her around.
The proposed closing date was April 22nd. The contract said on or before the 24th. Damn it! Damn it! Fuck! Okay, swearing doesn't help much. Lol
Update: We put on a lot of pressure and we got our closing date. Hurray! Nothing is official till those papers are signed. Let's hope it goes through. I cannot wait to be moved in to the new house.

Just said good bye Sept. 19th (MMC at 12 weeks)
Re: House selling issues --- Update
That sucks. We also had a buyer back out on us from a sale and we didn't get to keep the deposit either. I don't understand the point of the deposit if it isn't forfeited if you back out. We also had financing fall through for another couple. Last sale we had a buyer but did not have a good feeling because it was conditional on selling their house and they were in the middle of a messy divorce. Our agent wanted to sit back since he had a sale but we kept pushing and found another buyer. We were lucky because the first couple's house sat on the market for months afterwards.
Long story short selling houses sucks and I really hope it works out for you.
That's frustrating. Just need to keep thinking positives. Two months from now we will be in our new houses sipping wine in the back yard.
