When the right home shows up, the pressure is real. In Plant City, FL, last month homes sold at 99.2% of asking, so I would not treat the offer as a place to be careless.
Last month, homes sold at 99.2% of asking. That tells me the market is not giving away much on price. I would treat each offer as a decision that needs to be clean, justified, and ready to stand on its own. For a buyer, that means hesitation can cost you. For a seller, it means the market is still honoring well-positioned pricing, and that is something I would not ignore. Plant City, FL is still rewarding homes that are presented the right way. I would focus on the homes that make sense on day one. I would also keep my attention on the relationship between asking price and closing behavior. If you want help deciding how firm to be, I can walk you through it.
