That is newer than the Snohomish County median of 1990.1 Most of Silver Firs's housing is recent: only 14% of units predate 1980 (U.S. 50%) and 10% were built since 2010. The largest single share, 46%, dates from 1980-1999. That makes it an older stock than Snohomish County as a whole (35% built before 1980).1 On houses from the 1980s and 1990s, polybutylene supply lines, builder-grade windows and first-generation openers are the usual items a contractor confirms before quoting. Owner-occupied and rented homes in Silver Firs are of similar age: median build years 1997 and 2000.1
Housing in Silver Firs is mostly detached single-family: 90% of units, with 4% in buildings of five or more units.1 A mostly detached stock means the full range of exterior work applies: roofs, garage doors, chimneys and backyard units.

Within Snohomish County the median is $696,000, so Silver Firs sits above it.1 Home values above the state median tend to support fuller scopes; the written scope should still separate must-do from nice-to-have.
