They are obviously going high. If the house that sold for $265,000, then do this. Start at $265,000 and subtract $2,500 for each month since that house sold (since property values continue to be stagnant). Then add to that amount for everything that your $299k house has that the comparable doesn't (ie. add $5k to your offer price if the home you make an offer on has a two car garage and the comparable only has a one car) and subtract for things that the comparable has and the other doesn't (ie. subtract $5k from your offer price if the home you make an offer on has cheaper countertops, or carpet to the comparable's hardwood). Hopefully this isn't too complicated. No way to tell an ideal offer price, but make sure it's an offer you are comfortable with- that is, you can get financing and can afford it- and don't be shy to go low! Start low.

The market is in the buyers favor and I would use that to my advantage. Put together your research and offer 265. Be ready to defend your offer do your homework. I would be pretty aggresive.

If they don't like what you're offering they'll be sure to senbd you a counter offer. Or, worse comes to worse they'll probably just laugh in your face and sell to someone else. Then again who knows, you might get what you want. Don’t be shy to give them what you think is a descent offer. If they don’t like what you’re offering they’ll be sure to senbd you a counter offer.
