Does now as I only sold enough stock to cover half the cost and the other half was going to come from the sale of the house.

Ok, here's the scoop...

My house is on a slap and in the garage, a crack formed in the slab that goes through an interior wall to an exterior wall. It's concrete. It cracks. That's what concrete does. Anyway, the buyer talked to a co-worker that has no qualifications as a structural engineer and has scared him out of buying the house. We've lived there for 8 years and it happened in the first couple of years. We live on that great Indiana clay soil, so it's not like we'll have a sink hole and the front half of the house will fall into the hole as a result. We're proceeding with the structural engineer per the inspector's recommendation and as long as it's determined to be ok (which I'm sure it will), they buyer will be in default and we'll just keep his earnest money should they not go through with the purchase.

Darn the luck anyway.
