Hello all,

I am in a state of confusion as the listing agent doesnt seem to be asking the negotiator the right questions and my agent isnt addressing my concerns with her. We accepted a counter offer on August 22nd from B of A, same price just 1,000 dollars less in closing costs. The listing agent said we are good to go and suggested I lock my rate and order the appraisal. I was ecstatic until I started researching on my own and found out we may be nowhere near done. I thankfully could cancel the appraisal but the rate is locked and only has thirty days remaining before I have to extend. My question is we have been waiting on the approval letter and I was updated yesterday that the bank is requiring additional bank statements from the seller. Is this normal? Does anyone have any idea if we are even close to this nightmare being finished. We made original offer on the home on June 5th. Thanks for any updates or input provided.

Thanks

Jeff
