CAN I STAY IN THE HOUSE LONGER THAN THE AGREED SETTLEMENT DATE?

Not unless both buyer and seller have reached a written agreement. In this case, the buyer would have to agree to either postpone or change the settlement date or agree to a post-settlement agreement, which would allow you to stay in the house after closing for a specified amount of time and sometimes for a specified fee. However, buyers are under no requirement to accommodate your request and can force the closing to proceed as scheduled.
