Closing on my house sale in 2 wks. I have moved into a six month rental while I wait for my dream house to be available June. (I'm under contract to buy that house and have put in about $3K in earnest $) Last nite my realtor tells me that buyers are getting a divorce and may NOT go through with the closing! My realtor says that this is an ENFORCEABLE contract because they don't have the two escape hatches (financing and inspection) to justify backing out. I also have a lawyer who is ready to work on my behalf as soon as my realtor faxes him all the contracts for his review. In the meantime, I AM SICK over this. In so many ways I have proceeded as if this house sale is going through, from moving out, moving into a rental, selling furniture, BUYING stuff I figured I'd pay off at closing when I have the cash. I am so upset and have every intention of making it very very difficult for these people to get out of the contract. But can they?
