Here’s why I think you should contact your Realtor and make an offer 
1) The Federal Reserve Board is expected to raise interest rates in September. This will make your monthly payment go up.
2) The bidding wars have ended. For example, here in Seattle where bidding fights were the norm, houses are now selling with only one full price offer coming in, not multiple bids.
3) Fewer buyers are out making offers in August. People are on vacation or out camping, and thinking they’ll look in the fall. Less buyer competition is good for you.
