Is buying real estate just like buying candy in a retail store?

No, In a retail store, all or most goods have a price set by the merchant. Although the customer can sometimes negotiate a lower price, in most cases the price is fixed, and the customer can take it or leave it. In real estate, the asking price set by the seller is often just the starting point and the seller expects a negotiation process.
