@Nick Rice, I actually don't know squat about the market in your area, so I'd defer to your agent. :) 

I did not realize until today, Monday August 22, when I checked the documents again, that the seller's "withdrawal" of his offer to sell his property was not actually a valid withdrawal - that in fact I had all day August 19 to accept his counter.It seems clear to me now that the seller was eager to send written notice of withdrawal of his counter offer because he had received a better offer and was chomping at the bit hoping I would not accept by midnight August 19.My question is - is there anything I can do here?
