Don’t plan on your agent to be your negotiator - you are your negotiator.
You can’t set your price based on what you can afford, you set price based on comps.

If you think a hosue is worth 400,000 and it’s instead for 450,000 - lay out why you think it’s worth $400,000 and stick to it - there are plenty of houses for sale.

Problem is, buyers get emotionally attached to a house, and realtor knows that - so buyers overpay.
