Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Virginia

We have a contract with an on about date of July24th..We are the sellers..we have asked to move the date by one week because both my parents are ill and we are trying to get Mom

in a Memory Care Facility July30th so she won't have to move but one time...My father is in a rehab facility and being discharged at the end of this week...The buyer's realtor says we are obligated to close on July 24th..The state in which we live is Virginia...I don't think a week is unreasonable...?
