Retirement tax questions

It's too late. You cannot avoid the 10% penalty after you have closed on the house. You do not have 120 days before or after the closing. You have to use the money to buy the house within 120 days after (but not before) you receive the distribution from the IRA. Since you have already paid for the house, there is no way that you can meet that requirement.
