After the flood zone issue was resolved, then came yet another hurdle to get over. The radon test showed that the level was over a 6. (4 is highest acceptable) Sounds like my parents were lucky in that neither ever developed any health problems associated with radon, and they lived there approx. 50 years. At least the rest of the inspection (as well as the bank's appraisal) went OK!

Anyway, that wasn't too bad a hurdle to get over except it's costing us somewhere around $1400 for the ventilation system. We have our fingers crossed now and got notified yesterday by our lawyer's office that they're hoping to close tomorrow, (Fri) unless the lender has a problem with it, then comes the $$$ that all the loan sharks are ready to devour! (just kidding)

So far we haven't gotten confirmation about closing tomorrow, so I guess it boils down to our continually being on pins and needles right up to the last minute.

This process would have been a lot more fun though... if we were into S&M!
