House appraisal back: all is well

The appraisal for the house finally came back just where we needed it. Chip Dusseau, our agent, talked with us Saturday and we decided to do all the items requested in the inspection (the list wasn't bad). His guy, JHB Construction, seemed pretty reasonable, so we're having him do the deck items requested, plus we need to get the furnace done, and we even elected to go ahead and get the requested chimney cleaning of our gas fireplace, just so we could check the box to continue and not give them any excuse to cancel the deal. I'm not sure if they would anyway: I'm sure Chip wants this sale to be over so he can get his commission and be done with it, but I understand the logic. Anyway, they still have the "neighborhood review" clause if they want out.
