Making Offer on 1st Day of Listing

[Daniel H.]

Any advice for making an offer on the first day of MLS listing? I usually make offers on properties that have been sitting a while. If one comes on at what I think is a good price, should I offer slightly less than asking price and make offer good for one day only?

Obviously I will appear too eager if I am bidding on first day.

Also I don't have time to see property before making my offer but I would be happy to pay that price if inspection checks out.
