Joe Skipper

Joe was born in South Carolina and was raised up and down the east coast while his dad was in the Navy. When he retired, their family moved to Oregon and Joe spent the rest of his childhood in Carlton, a little town outside of McMinnville.

He graduated from Oregon State University with a Bachelor of Science in Exercise Science. Joe was planning to go into the physical therapy realm but decided public service was more his style, so he joined the Oregon State Police in 2006. Joe has been a road Trooper in the Salem area, a detective in the major crimes section, and served on the dignitary protection unit, responsible for protecting the Oregon Governor.

Joe is married to Christina Skipper and has two great kiddos, Rory (9) and Cora (4). They currently live in Wilsonville and love it there. When he’s not working, in the winter it's time for snowboarding, and in the summer, Joe likes to wakeboard and wakesurf. His family also likes to get out in their travel trailer and go "glamping" throughout Oregon.

Joe started Skipper Realty Group to continue in a field he has been interested in his whole adult life. His in-laws are real estate brokers and Joe always respected and admired how they catered their business with a "client first" mentality. In a field where the buying and selling process can seem overwhelming and new to most people, they have thrived by giving them a positive experience in which the client feels confident leaving one of their biggest investments in their hands. It's what Joe would like to continue to do with his business.

He has bought and sold numerous homes personally and is a home investor as well, and Joe would love to help you with your next purchase or sale. Whether it's your first time buying a home, or you're looking to dive into an investment property, Joe is enthusiastic about how to get that going!
