About Jay Primrose Properties
Company bio
Jay Primrose Properties is a Tacoma-based property investor operating locally in Washington. Justin Baker owns the company, which has been active since at least 2017. It purchases homes directly, including houses, townhomes, duplexes, and apartments. The company says offers can be 20–30% below traditional listing prices because it resells properties and needs a profit margin. In exchange, sellers can skip repairs, cleaning, junk removal, showings, and agent commissions without company fees. You choose the closing date. The company also works with owners facing foreclosure, inherited property, or relocation.

Customer experience
Top 10% in WA
Jay Primrose Properties has a strong customer experience profile. Its lifetime feedback was overwhelmingly positive, backed by a moderate review record. The latest 3 months contained 1 5-star rating — just 1 rating, too few to establish a sustained trend. Its Customer Experience score of 92/100 places it around the top 15% of comparable cash buyers serving a single market.
Lifetime ratings. Lifetime feedback was strongly positive: 55 rated reviews averaged 4.9/5, with 54 five-star ratings and 1 one-star rating. Reviews dated back to 2017. Our methodology adjusts small rating samples toward the typical company rating, then maps the adjusted rating to a score and applies a small review-depth deduction that decreases as the record grows. Volume credit grows with every rating, with an additional small adjustment that grows fastest over the first few hundred ratings and then slows. It strengthens the distance from the neutral, sample-adjusted 4.5-star signal; this record received a 0.25% adjustment to that signal. This added 0.06 score points before the depth deduction and confidence limit.
Recent ratings. The latest 12 months contained 3 5-star ratings. The latest 6 months contained 2 5-star ratings. The latest 3 months contained 1 5-star rating, through October 3, 2026.
Rating trends. Ratings improved slightly from an already strong lifetime average. The 3-month average rose from 4.93 lifetime to 5.00 — up 0.07 stars, or 1.5%. The five-star share rose from 98.2% to 100.0%, up 1.8 percentage points. The recent sample contained just 1 five-star rating. It was too small to establish a lasting improvement.
Common themes. A smooth process led the feedback, appearing in 25 of 44 detailed customer reviews (57%), followed by honesty and transparency in 21 (48%) and compassionate treatment in 18 (41%). Other common themes included knowledge and capability in 15 (34%). Reviews could mention multiple themes.
Review relevance. We classified 51 of 55 reviews (93%) as relevant to the home-selling experience. Another 3 concerned business partners and 1 concerned initial contacts without reported outcomes. All 55 star ratings remained in the lifetime rating record.
Recent activity
Bottom 50% in WA
Company activity · As of October 3, 2026 — our latest collection date.
Jay Primrose Properties has recent review activity. The sparse recent review record limits the pace assessment. Its 6-month review volume is higher than similar companies. The company also completed enhanced screening with our team. Its Activity score of 67/100 places it around the top 39% of comparable cash buyers serving a single market.
Recent review volume. 6-month and 3-month counts are higher than the median for similar companies; 12-month counts are equal to the median for similar companies. We counted 3 reviews over 12 months, 2 over 6 months and 1 over 3 months. Similar companies had median counts of 3, 1, and 0, respectively.
Recent review pace. The recent review record is too sparse for a formal pace classification. Its 6-month rate was 0.7× its lifetime average pace, compared with 0.7× over 3 months and 0.5× over 12 months. Recent rates averaged 0.3 reviews per month over 6 months, 0.3 over 3 months and 0.3 over 12 months, versus a lifetime average of 0.5. The record contains 55 reviews dating back to 2017. A few reviews can noticeably change the recent pace.
Review freshness. Its latest review on file was September 18, 2026 — less than 3 weeks old as of our last data refresh. 4% of all reviews appeared within the last 6 months, and the average review age was about 3.5 years.
Other business activity. Jay Primrose Properties claimed its directory profile and completed enhanced screening with our team. We have no business interview or reviewed purchase figure on file.
Credibility signals
Bottom 50% in WA
Jay Primrose Properties has a strong credibility profile. We identified the company’s leadership and buying model. We have 9 years of documented review history. The main limits on its score were website depth and transparency, unconfirmed business structure, and limited company-history information. We found no specific legitimacy concerns or review-integrity red flags in the retained source material, so there were no deductions.
Verification. We identified Google and Facebook profiles. We don’t have a matched BBB listing on file, so we couldn’t assess its BBB status. Its Google Business Profile was verified. Jay Primrose Properties claimed its directory profile and completed enhanced screening with our team.
Website assessment. The website was accessible when checked on September 29, 2026. The website scored 80/100 for depth and transparency. It includes company background, team information, buying and service information, the process and terms, and customer testimonials or work examples.
Business details. We identified Justin Baker as the company’s owner. We could not confirm its business structure. Its website identifies it as a direct buyer. No related businesses or DBAs were identified.

How we researched and scored this company
Methodology
We research each company using its website, business profiles, and third-party customer reviews. We use company sources to understand its services and terms, and distinguish those claims from independent evidence. When available, we also draw on interviews with company representatives and sellers, and relevant public records.
When there is enough evidence, we calculate an overall score out of 100 using 3 categories:
- Customer experience (67.5%) reflects customer satisfaction, based primarily on average customer ratings and the number of reviews supporting them.
- Recent activity (20%) reflects recent review volume, how recently the company received a review, and how its recent review pace compares with its history. Reviews are a signal of activity, not a count of completed home purchases.
- Credibility (12.5%) considers business verification, website transparency, public engagement, and documented operating history.
Use the company or location identified on this page when interpreting the evidence. A broader company record may not describe every local office. Review history is separate from the company’s founding date.
Limited evidence can restrict what we can assess. A company may appear without a score, and a small review sample may not represent a typical seller’s experience. Scores summarize the evidence available to us; they do not predict an offer price or guarantee a sale or service quality.
