I would negotiate from the market's pace and closing range, not from emotion.

If you are asking whether there is room to negotiate right now, the answer is yes, but not without discipline. In Las Vegas, NV, recent offers closed at 98.3% of asking over the previous 30 days, which tells me many sellers are still holding close to their price when the home is presented well. For a buyer, that means your strongest leverage comes from choosing the right target, not from making random low offers.
Over the previous 30 days, buyers in Las Vegas, NV paid about 98.3% of asking, and a typical pending listing moved in 27 days. That is enough competition to keep negotiations grounded. It does not support a strategy built around assuming every seller will slash their price. I would read that as a market where offer strength still comes from preparation, clean terms, and targeting homes that line up with recent sold pricing. If you are also watching for long-term rental acquisitions, this same pricing discipline matters because overpaying at entry can limit your flexibility later. Target homes that already sit near recent closed values. Submit offers with clear terms and a firm ceiling instead of opening low just to see what happens. Walk away from properties where the numbers do not support the ask.
