Its a sellers market, at least here in my area (Topeka). Going through a divorce so we've been selling some properties; had a rental posted for 10 minutes before the first showing. Had a contract within two hours. Actually had to counter lower than the offer as there was zero chance that the house would appraise for offer, otherwise, really, really solid offer. Realtor said it was the first time that she's ever seen a counter that was lower than the offer. (House was built in the 80s; final sales price rivals a new build on a price/sq ft basis.)
Neighbor listed yesterday; I noticed that her house is under contract today.
