I would have a few irons in the fire... just in case. You never know what could happen, especially since you say there are multiple offers.

Multiple offer situation, I wouldn't even wait for a response. Get them back in the car until there's a contract.

Don't wait. Put a back-up plan in place. I had a deal fall through after waiting 3 weeks for a bank response (the bank never responded and the listing agent went on vacation without telling anyone!). Then we had to work another 4 weeks to find the next home--which did close.

I know buyers get emotionally connected to properties, but it is in your best interest to keep showing homes and identify 1 or 2 good back-up properties that you can jump on if this deal doesn't go through.
