Short answer
By months of inventory, Sealy is a buyer's market right now: 8.0 months of supply, with 125 homes for sale against 93 sales in the last six months. Inventory is building, giving buyers more room to negotiate on price and terms. Conditions differ by price band and area, so use this as context, not a rule.
Where the numbers put the market
Months of inventory divides the homes now for sale by the recent monthly pace of sales. In Sealy that gives 8.0 months, which we label a buyer's market. Inventory is building, giving buyers more room to negotiate on price and terms. On months of inventory, Sealy is with more supply than most (ranked 4 of 39 communities with enough sales to compare).
What a market label does and does not tell you
A market label is a summary. A buyer's market can still contain a busy price band and a slow one, and a good home priced well can sell quickly in any market. Right now 46% of active homes have had a price cut, which shows how much room sellers have used. A Sealy average is a starting point, not a verdict on any one property, and the right move depends on your timeline, finances and the home itself.
