Sellers Agent MIA

A house my spouse and I fell in love with hit the market Thursday; we submitted an offer that day. The listing agent asked that we date our offer to last until 10pm Friday as the seller did not want to string out the decision making process. Listing agent confirmed that she received our offer and had presented it to the seller. Seller wanted to sleep on it (there were multiple offers) so listing agent said she'd reach out Friday.

That was the last we've heard from her.

Our realtor has tried calling and texting multiple times but no response. She originally thought the listing agent was being unprofessional but began wondering if a personal emergency popped up. Our agent even called the listing agents broker just to see if she was ok; broker hasn't heard from her either and agreed it seemed very strange. He told my agent he'd get back to her if he heard anything. Haven't gotten a call so I assume he hasn't.

So, what happens now? The listing is still active. If they were intentionally going to continue to show it all weekend, why ask us to date our offers for Friday night? Are offers received after the realtors specified "time" able to be contenders? If something really did happen does the broker just take over the listing?

Aren't comps/CMAs useless with buyer credits at close happening now?

I'm looking into buying a new construction townhouse in my HCOL US city. I'm seeing builders offering interest rate buydowns worth $20k-$60k on $800k homes (rather than just lowering prices) in order to keep their comps high for their other units, now that buyer demand has been declining. I asked my agent about these, and he said these buydowns aren't even the full story: buyers can write all kinds of other credits into an offer, like their closing costs, prepaid sewer fees, etc. Apparently cash buyers can just write in a "buyer credit at close" for any amount in their offer. So a new townhouse that appeared to sell for $800k in the MLS might have actually been a cash offer with a $100k+ buyer credit at close, meaning the buyer only spent $700k or less in total, but to the rest of the world they can only see the $800k! So that made me realize I can't trust comps/CMAs for other new construction townhouses. The sales prices could be way lower than they appear...
