Buying in Skykomish: what's different
Skykomish is a micro-market: typically 3 to 7 homes for sale at a time and only about a dozen sales a year, so one sale can move the median a lot. Over the past year the median house sold for about $592K. Small homes in town have sold for about $330K to $570K; homes outside town, usually bigger and on more land, have a median closer to $700K.
Unlike the rest of the upper valley, Skykomish has town sewer, a wastewater treatment system installed during the BNSF cleanup that ran from 2006 to 2017. Many homes came out of that cleanup better than they went in: lifted, put on new foundations and connected to new utilities. That's the town itself; Skykomish-address homes outside it, along the river and up the side valleys, are on septic, and they made up about three-quarters of recent sales.
A lot of homes here are ski cabins, weekend places or vacation rentals. The town adopted a short-term rental ordinance in 2021, so if you plan to rent the place out, know the rules before you buy.
Skykomish is in King County but has no road connection to the rest of the county: the only way in or out is Highway 2, west toward Monroe or east over Stevens Pass, and the pass can close in heavy snow. About a third of upper-valley buyers pay cash, so expect competition from buyers who don't need a loan.
