I look at the current pace and what it means for your next move.

If you are trying to decide whether to make a move in Galveston, TX, the short answer is that recent numbers still lean in favor of buyers, and I would not rush a decision without a clear plan. Last month, months of inventory stood at 12.96, which tells me there is still plenty of supply to work with.

Last month, Galveston, TX had 12.96 months of inventory, sold-to-list price came in at 93.8%, and a typical sale took 47 days. That combination is why I would treat this as a market where pricing and patience matter more than speed. For buyers, that gives me a clear read I would focus on the homes that have been sitting longer, stay disciplined on price, and use the pace to avoid overcommitting too early. For sellers, I would pay close attention to how your list price compares with the market's actual closing behavior. My next step is simple. I would start with a realistic price position, watch how long similar homes are taking to move, and adjust quickly if your first response is softer than expected.
