Understanding MLS Asking price strategy

I picked up my first duplex last year off the MLS. Looking for number two in a similar neighborhood. However, the property is listed much higher than surrounding comps by at least 60K. I'm not trying to low ball them but I know with the numbers they reported their isn't much of a return for an investor.

My question,  how do you (the BP community) treat these deals.  Do I submit an offer with numbers that works for me?  If so, should I submit my offer with supporting information as to why I am offering much lower than asking?  Maybe I'm over thinking it, but I would love to hear your thoughts.

Thanks!
