You negotiate the price first, with the stipulation that it meets expectation upon inspection, and then inspect it. Price is first, everything else follows. Asking price is irrelevant to market price.

My approach is to slightly lowball everything that I would want to purchase, and negotiate the few counters that are offered. Occasionally someone accepts the lowball with no counter.

Tough market to be a buyer. Lots more rejection involved.
