FYI some lenders may not close on timely manner longer close dates with push back . The contract you have is a back up I would recommend for you keep looking more than likely odds purchase this home is slim. If you locate another home seller would need refund your earnest money.

Because the sellers are already in contract it is up to them to pressure the current buyers to complete the transaction. They may decide that, despite having to give 3 extensions, it is still in their best interest to try and close that deal and there are probably details about that offer your agent is not privy to. As long as the seller has agreed to the extensions then the first buyers are still in contract. There is nothing you can do to force the sellers to move your back up offer into first position. I would suggest that while you are waiting it out to see if this deal will go forward, continue to look for other homes that may be just as suitable and are still available.
