A Bump in the Road

Things had been progressing smoothly until a couple of days ago. We have sorted out all of the paperwork set a date to sign the final contracts. Unfortunately, the survey of the property has uncovered some previously unkown problems with the roof: it's not actually waterproof! Nothing that cannot be fixed, but a costly problem that changes our perspective on the financial aspect of the transaction.

We have now resumed negotiations with the vendor to solve this problem and reach an agreement that satisfies everyone. I am confident that we can resolve this, and while I knew we would experience complications along the way, this development is still disappointing. We would hate to be forced to walk away now.
