Skip Halverson
RE/MAX Results · St. Cloud, MN
Updated July 2026
Editorial evaluation
8.6/ 10
Very good
Strong public evidence, with limitations still worth reviewing
Evidence confidence
Low20/100
Documentation completeness and reliability—not agent quality.
A 23-year, Hall-of-Fame RE/MAX producer with a perfect (if thin) review record, built around first-time buyers, lake/recreational property, and round-the-clock availability.
Pros
- ✓23 years licensed (broker-licensed since 2006), RE/MAX Hall of Fame (2018), multiple 100% Club years
- ✓Perfect 5.0-star client rating, though the independently verified sample is small (7 reviews)
- ✓Documented recent track record: 45 St. Cloud sales, 18 in Cold Spring, 7 in Sartell over the past three years
- ✓Built a reputation for 24/7 availability and staying engaged with clients after closing
- ✓Clear niche fit for first-time buyers and recreational/lake property
Cons
- ✗Verified review sample (7) is smaller than some competitors, despite the perfect rating
- ✗Recreational/vacation-property focus is less relevant if you're strictly buying a standard in-town home
- ✗Direct phone/email contact details were not independently verifiable at publication time (brokerage profile pages blocked automated access)

Verdict

Ranking disclosure
Why this ranking appears in this order
This profile evaluates Skip Halverson against other researched agents using the same scoring model; it is not a statewide MLS production ranking. The displayed order follows the published five-factor score. The math is fixed; the five input scores are editorial evaluations of the public evidence available through July 2026.
- Ranking formula
- Local knowledge 25% + client reviews 25% + market expertise 20% + communication 15% + specialization fit 15%.
- Time period
- Evidence reviewed through July 2026. Review totals are snapshots; career claims may cover longer periods and must state that context.
- Objective vs. editorial
- The weighted calculation is deterministic after the inputs are assigned. Selecting evidence and assigning each dimension score require editorial judgment.
- Commercial independence
- Agents cannot purchase inclusion, a score, numbered position, or favorable verdict. Any sponsorship must appear outside the editorial ranking.
- Transaction-data boundary
- This edition does not use a private MLS feed or a standardized file of verified 2025 closings. Sales volume, homes sold, sale-to-list ratio, and days on market are not assumed when attributable evidence is unavailable.
- Independent corroboration
- Government records control licensing facts. Brokerage, agent, review-platform, award, and production claims are kept distinct; agreement across sources raises confidence but does not erase source limitations.
Evidence captured for this profile
- Minnesota license record
- No license number is stored in this profile; use the state lookup for current status.
- Public review aggregate
- 7 reviews at 5.0/5 when the profile evidence was reviewed.
- Professional first-party source
- Personal site is linked for direct review of the agent's current public claims.
Exact field-level source URLs are not yet available for every narrative claim. Until they are, production and award statements should be treated as attributed public claims—not as independently audited MLS facts.
