Realtor and I did research independently. Agreed to the listing price. I still think it's a fair price.

Builders I've been hearing about are in the +10% category now for lumber shortage.

Agree that there's apparent warts in my house I'm selling. I don't wanna hear from the guy that his +$20k offer over list is now -$10k under list post inspection. Reasons are the fence falling over, a new roof required, the windows are original needing replacement, and the carpets all need to be replaced. Those are not things you need a home inspector to see on your behalf.
