The median price of the 137 homes that closed in Skagit County in June was $560,000, almost unchanged over the four months since March. Fewer homes closed in most of the county’s nine markets than a year ago but the number was about the same as sold in May.
The 27 homes sold in Anacortes was six less than in May and seven fewer than in 2022. The median sold home price there dipped to $765,000 after two months of being above $800,000. Data are from the Kirkland-based Northwest Multiple Listing Service.
A La Conner area broker shared a report that seven homes sold in the La Conner market had a median price of $657.449. This included an unlisted house on Channel Lane that sold for $942,340. Prices ranged from $330,000 for a 648-square-foot home built in 1950 off Pull and Be Damned Road to $955,000 for a 2004-built 2,223-square-foot home off Reservation Road facing the flats and the Cascades.
Three homes were on Maple Avenue, two of them in the Landed Gentry development. The home south of the Landed Gentry property reportedly sold for $540,000.
The NWMLS reported 11 homes sold in the La Conner market had a $485,000 median price. That was the most homes sold in a month in this market in 2023. Price has a general upward trend for the year.
The months of inventory dropped slightly countywide to about seven weeks. Fewer homes for sale are probably keeping prices up.
There are 28 active listings in the La Conner market, down slightly from May but the second highest number this year and almost 50% above 2022.
