Real estate agents have told me , "the buyers will determine the price one gets for their home, not the sellers", in a downturned market. Sellers always think their home is worth more, than it is.
However, that is not the case here, as inventory is low, and prices asked for are easily obtained. When build-out finishes, (whenever that will be, and only Gary Morse reallly knows), I think the prices will go up even further.
I know when I bought, the market hadn't taken off yet in terms of prices, so I am so glad I bought when I did. The real estate agent did me a favor when he said, "you need to pull the trigger". A sales gimmick as viewed by some, and a reality to others, who have seen prices skyrocket.
I think the VLS agents had a carefree attitude toward someone purchasing a home, as they knew the next buyer would purchase that particular home. Hopefully, it was their customer.
I am sure you will find a home somewhere in your price range, but prices have gone up dramatically.
