Buyer’s vs seller’s market is just a way of comparing the number of people attempting to buy a house against the number of houses up for sale. Both local and global factors impact this, for example a new factory opening in town, or increased tariffs on building supplies.

As for buyers also being sellers, that does have some impact, but maybe not as big an impact as you’d think. A seller may be building a new home instead of buying one, or a buyer might currently be renting. In either case somebody may be moving to a different region with a different balance of buyers vs sellers, because you’re only competing for houses in whatever area you consider a reasonable commute.
