Our experience in 2016 was actually very similar to dubc80. We had a pretty good idea of what we were looking for (both location and house) and the "good stuff" would usually sell within days.
At the risk of generalizing, if you're buying a cookie cutter in the suburbs, or a condo with multiple units for sale in the same/neighboring building, you can be a little more patient because the demand is probably a little lower and the supply a little higher. But if there is something particular you are looking for, I would keep looking and jump if the opportunity presents itself (it's unclear whether the OP has been "watching the market" via what properties are listing for, or actively visiting/shopping for houses). This is especially true in the lower end of the market (i.e. sub $500k for a detached SFH) -- I'd expect to see less movement versus higher end stuff.

Agreed. Without de-railing the thread, I've been told the housing market in Tuscany is pretty... unique.
