Get to know Sealy
Welcome to Sealy
Sealy ISD serves the city. Roughly a third of the current listings are new construction, and the price mix spreads evenly across the bands.
Builder homes make up roughly a quarter to a third of the listings; the majority is resale with a median build year in the 2020s. Few of the current listings fall inside a FEMA special flood hazard area. Lot sizes run larger than the metro norm, with a sizeable minority of listings on an acre or more. Everything on this page is drawn live from our MLS feed and refreshed through the day.

The Sealy real estate market
What the numbers mean
Not just numbers — what they tell you. Median price, how fast homes really sell, where prices are heading, and which neighborhoods are heating up. Live from our MLS feed, with Allen's plain-English read.
Sealy is tilting toward buyers right now — about 7.8 months of inventory, yet roughly 45% of active sellers have already cut their price, so well-prepared buyers still have room to negotiate. The median home sells around $365,000, and the typical listing has truly been on the market about 89 days.
Each figure is compared with the same period last year. Where last year's data isn't in our feed yet, you'll see "—".

Build a home search that excludes — or includes — the flood plain. Your call.
Flood zones affect your insurance cost, not whether a home is a bad buy — and we're the only site that lets you filter them right out of your search (or zero in on them). Two homes on the same street can sit in different zones; we show real exposure on every listing.
Search with the flood filterThe honest picture
We surface the real federal flood-claim history for any area you're considering — context, not scare tactics. Risk is very address-specific, and we walk through each home's exact exposure with you before you ever make an offer.

Neighborhoods & communities
Sealy isn't one market
it's dozens
Sealy spans 11+ active communities — each with its own pricing, amenities and feel. Search the list or explore the map — hover either one and the other lights up, with live numbers for that neighborhood.
Layered communities: in Sealy, smaller neighborhoods often sit inside a larger master-planned community — so those homes pay two HOA fees, and the MLS lists both. Where footprints overlap on the map, click the same spot more than once to step through the stacked HOAs (smallest first).
11 of 11 communities
How this works: footprints are the convex hull of each community's listings over the last five years (active plus sold) — a denser, more representative outline from our own data, but still an approximation, not a surveyed HOA boundary. Numbers (active, pending, avg price, new-30d) are live from the AWS MLS feed for Sealy, residential for-sale only. 11 communities with 3+ active listings shown.

One integrated system, not ten
