    >Asking 2M
    Ok
    >Sold 3M
    Ok
    >Over asking 1M
    What? Isn’t that overpaying 1M instead? Am I just stupid and don’t get it?

      It’s shorthand for “we sold this particular home for 1.02m over (more than) the initial asking price!”

      It’s advertising that it’s a hot market and this realtor will get you a ton of money, even more than you will initially ask for. Probably due to multiple bidders.
