Answer 1

The situation that would not change a buyer's market into a seller's market is:

A factory lays off a lot of workers in the area.

This scenario typically reduces the number of potential buyers in the market, as laid-off workers may have less financial stability and purchasing power, which would likely maintain or even strengthen the buyer's market. In contrast, the other scenarios would generally lead to increased demand for housing, shifting the market towards a seller's market.
