Lot of houses on market everywhere at moment, due to market way over priced, due to rapid inflation in last few years and interest rates don’t help either. Home/property only worth what someone is willing to pay. Seller normally has target price unless desperate will not sell for less. Buyer can offer what they want the seller can only go down in price never up unless they remove from market and list it again which happens. So they price house to meet their target price after the negotiations. Around here seems VLS contract (i don’t know about MLS) want large amount of earnest money in case deal falls through at last minute. Packing up and getting ready to move the last week or so costs money.
