Yes it will drop more. Yes they're still overpriced. Look at the sales history for whatever house you're watching - vacation areas are boom and bust. Right now we're edging out of extreme BOOM territory. PPP is right that some owners don't care if it sells and are just testing the waters, but for those that want to sell, (and if there's a recession: for those that will need to sell) in the next few years, they're not going to be getting top dollar.

Not that I blame them for trying. Swing for the fences; it'd be cool to be able to say you made a million on your pandemic beach house purchase as soon as you were done remote working full time. It has happened for some people and it might happen for a few more. But do you want to be the mook on the other side of the table making it happen for the last guy in this boom cycle?

No your wasting your time. They probably don’t care if they sell but will if can get big profit.

Are you working with a realtor? They'll tell you of you're wasting your time

The worst they can say is no.

OP, OP, OP ... the "correct" price is the price at which a seller and a buyer mutually agree upon to complete the transaction. So, sure, go ahead and submit your offer; the seller can always accept. If the seller doesn't accept, then your price wasn't the "correct" one.

Where are you looking? It is so location-dependent.

Yeah your buyers agent doesn’t charge you to submit offers. As long as they’re fine with it, it’s fine.

Good luck with that.

We are looking now, but realize that ship has sailed. We will continue renting.

I feel like people from middle America discovered the NE coastal communities during covid.

If you think you've missed the boat based on looking now, you must have only been looking for 2 days. Inventory is up, houses are sitting, and prices are dropping.

+1

NP. No way we're making a move now. But, there will be a good time.

Without knowing more information about a specific property, it is difficult to offer advice.

You can offer whatever amount of money that you want regardless of the asking price.

Many homes being sold after one year have received extensive renovations which could account for much of a price increase.

Is there a point on offering them the correct market price of 5-10% more? Are these even worth looking at? Are these just I am going to throw this on and hope someone buys it? Are they not serious as they are just going to collect airbnbs?

Sure, go ahead and put in an offer. If it hasn’t been sitting for a while, they probably won’t except it, but there is no downside to you.
