Real estate asking prices ARE adjusting to "less than appraised" now. Searching the MLS I see homes where the owners are much more willing to deal.

I made the mistake of buying my first home at the peak in 1989. I was fearing if I didn't buy then (like now) home prices would soon be out of reach. Of course, just over a year later the market collasped. After two years in; the market value was level with very little increase after that. Plus I had a 30 yr fixed and the rate was 10+% believe it or not that was a good deal at the time.

Just don't want to repeat that situation again.
