Nintyeight - Closing Time

So we had closing on our house today. We found a buyer and had to bend a bit to get the sale to go. We had committed to upgrading the kitchen because every house on the market had one. But then there was the home inspection, which ID'ed the roof to be out of date, and needed replacement. The buyer's agent recommended a guy who turned out to be the low bidder, however, during the walk through on the day of closing, the roofer had stepped through the ceiling above the stairs and the garage door wouldn't work. To top it off, the buyer had money wired from another country which required traceability and resulted in a delayed closing date. We signed off on the closing, checked the house which we found the garage door to be locked (simple fix), and withheld the final payment check for the roofer until the ceiling was repaired just in case the buyer walked. What a fucking hassle!
