I would let the recent pace and pricing shape the offer, not the excitement of the tour.
If you are trying to buy in Perris, CA without overpaying, I would slow down the emotional side of the process and tighten up the decision side. Recent offers averaged 100.3% of asking and a typical sale took 25 days, so buyers need a plan that is calm, clear, and realistic.
The early answer is that buyers still need to show strength where the home deserves it. In Perris, CA, recent supply was 2.05 months and the typical closed price reached $606,542, so I would expect serious competition on homes that are well-priced and well-presented. I would also separate competition from desperation. The typical asking price for active homes was $599,950 over the previous month, which sits close to the recent closed price. That tells me the market is efficient, not irrational. When price and closing results are this close, the best buyer strategy is not a dramatic overbid. It is a clean, credible offer built around what the home is worth to you. Get your financing lined up before you start writing. Decide in advance which terms matter most and where you will stay firm. When you find the right home, move quickly, but keep your limit intact.
