2 steps forward, 10 steps back

I have said this many times and I will say it a few more times. I never want to have to sell a house again.
 
Every time we get within a few days of our closing date something comes up and we have to push it back. It all started with the foundation needing work. We got the foundation fixed then their loan required them to have an engineer report, we got the engineer report, then they needed a plumbing test. We had the plumber come out on Friday and the test failed. We have a drain leak somewhere...GREAT! This will not be an easy fix more than likely. Cost can range anywhere from 1000-4000, just to find where the problem is will cost us 300.00. Who ever thinks we are made of money didn't get the memo that we are broke...WE HAVE NO MONEY.
 
So as of right now we are waiting to hear back from a few plumbers to see when they can come out and run a camera down our sewer line and find the leak. The buyers are 50/50 right now on moving forward with the purchase. Heck once they finally own the home we will have fixed everything. I hate this house, our biggest mistake in life was buying it. we wait until next week to see how much we will have to fork over to fix this, praying its not that bad. Somethings gotta give RIGHT?
 
If our seller backs out we will have to re list it and pray someone else comes and buys it quickly. We have already moved out because we thought we would have already closed, so the house is empty.. Maybe our house will sell fast if its empty. who knows....
 
PLEASE SAY A PRAYER FOR US.
