The recent numbers suggest your best advantage comes from focus, not from seeing everything.
If you are unsure whether casting a wide net helps, my answer is no in a market moving this quickly. In Santa Clara, CA, the typical sale timeline was 10 days last month, so I would rather see a focused search than an overloaded one.
A typical sold price was $1,830,000 over the previous 30 days, and supply was 1.14 months. In Santa Clara, CA, those numbers point to a market where selection is constrained enough that wasting time on marginal options can cost you the right opportunity.
That matters because search quality beats search volume when homes are moving fast. You do not need to see everything. You need to know what qualifies as a serious candidate, what does not, and how quickly you can separate one from the other once a listing hits the market.
Cut the search list to homes that truly fit your price range and core needs. Tour the strongest matches first. Keep a written ranking after each showing so your choices stay clear under pressure. For commercial property decisions, I would apply the same discipline and remove borderline opportunities earlier.
