If that is the case, and if you know there is nobody really interested in the house besides you, you can come in with a low-ball offer and see what they counter with.
We just got an offer accepted on our first ever house, and we just asked for the 3%. We knew this is a nice house, and a bunch of people were interested, but we really really wanted it.
It's exciting and very nerve-wrecking. Oh, make sure you put an inspection contingency in the offer, so you have a way out if you need it!!!
