Recent closings suggest negotiation still plays a real role.

If you are asking whether every offer has to come in at full price, the recent answer is no. In Petersburg, VA, offers closed at about 95.6% of asking over the previous 30 days, so disciplined negotiation is still part of the process.
Over the previous 30 days, homes in Petersburg, VA closed at roughly 95.6% of asking, and the typical closed price was $218,000. A typical sale also took 58 days last month. I would use that combination to stay assertive but credible. There is room to negotiate, yet I do not want you writing disconnected offers that ignore the seller-side pressure created by 2.07 months of supply. The strongest position is usually an offer that reflects market evidence and clean terms, not just a lower number. Start with recent closed pricing before you decide your number. Keep your terms organized so the seller sees a complete offer, not a scattered one. Push back on overpricing with evidence, then stay flexible on structure where it helps you compete. Be firm, not careless.
