Negotiating Deal Prices that are 30+ Days on MLS/Zillow

I've heard that people have been successful with negotiating price cuts on the properties for certain deals. One in particular I'm interested in is regarding proerties that have been on the MLS/Zillow websites for more than 30 days. There are ones I've seen ranging from 30 days to 189 days.

Persistence is key when wanting what you're dreaming for. I will start by giving them a price I think would be reasonable. Then follow up every few weeks to see if they are willing until we can meet in the middle.

How long should the property be on the MLS/Zillow before making the connection to start asking if the seller is willing to lower the price that can make the deal sell?
