am i about to get screwed?

Dammit I wish someone would say dig in your heels 20 percent down is enough 22 percent is just too much! From my point of view any equity the seller has could vanish as the leaves drop from the trees and school begins so they ought to jump on my offer. I see your guys point but I say you’ve got to have a total limit. I drive the speed limit not a mile over and I’ll pay not a dime more … All sort of absurd as the house will be worth a third less in 2012

In that context the 2% is irrelevant.

I personally think you are getting hung up unnecessarily. It is impossible to assess the value of a house to within 2%. This is noise. So, the point comes down to, do you like the house ? Does it suit your needs ? (We already know you can afford it).
Are you paying a premium above rent. If not, or if that premium is small enough who cares if it worth half what you paid for it in 30 years. You would essentially own it for the price of rent.

2% is noise in the price of a home. Get over it.

It’s actually the same amount, it’s just your perspective that is different. Whether one overpays by 12K or pays closing costs of 12 K, or loses 12K in vegas, it’s still 12K.
