I would say yes, but only if you use the extra choice to negotiate with discipline.
If you are asking whether the current market gives you bargaining power, I believe it does. In MacDonald Highlands, NV, the opportunity is not just that there are homes available, but that the numbers give you a framework for when to push and when to stay flexible.
MacDonald Highlands, NV recently showed 6.75 months of supply, and offers averaged 95.4% of asking. A typical pending home at month end took 19 days, while newly pending homes showed a 43-day path to contract. Those figures tell me negotiation room exists, but stronger listings are still separating themselves from weaker ones. For a buyer, leverage works best when it is selective. I would not walk into every conversation assuming a big discount is waiting. With a typical sale still closing in 16 days, some homes are clearly attracting confident demand. The advantage in MacDonald Highlands, NV is that you have enough inventory and pricing spread to challenge weak positioning without treating every listing the same. Push harder where the listing has been exposed longer or where the price does not match current contract behavior. Stay cleaner and faster when the home fits the stronger pace pattern. In MacDonald Highlands, NV, I would use the market's flexibility to make a better decision, not to chase the lowest number at all costs.
