Selling house in NY, buying in NJ, need more time - advice needed

I'm selling my own home in Westchester and moving to NJ, but had hit a speed bump.  The buyers for my home just received the commitment yesterday and would like to close ASAP.  However, the contract says Nov. 10 as the closing date.  The problem is, my estimated closing date for my home that I am moving into is Nov. 19th.  When I saw them through the inspection, they said they'd work with me on the move out date, as I told them I'd prob. need a week or two to close on my house.  However, now, through their attorney, they are asking us to try our best to close on the 10th; I just do not know how this would be possible.  I do not know what to do, as I am awaiting my title search to be completed and then we can close.  I am not trying to be difficult with them, but I am not sure what else I can do.  I am moving a lot of stuff, so it's not as just moving me and a few things.

Hoping for advice here  The NY attorney isn't being very helpful on how to buy time.
