Jillian Blue, Good escape. sounds like this was actually a good experience builder for you. I have gone in the other direction, make the deposit and get the price agreed upon. Then you should have 30 days for due diligence, maybe some language about an extension if the home inspection can't be scheduled. If you find something you don't like, cancel the deal and get your deposit back, or renegotiate the price. Be vary cautious about timelines in the contract and use your buyer Realtor or Real Estate attorney to do your negotiating. Hope you'll post some good news here soon.
