Simple Sell has a mixed overall score. Its lifetime average is 4.3 stars across 30 ratings, with a mix of positive and poor feedback. Recent review activity is limited, with only 2 reviews in the past 6 months. That’s too little feedback to establish a recent rating trend. Its business credentials are solid overall. It ranks 20th out of the 22 Jacksonville, Florida cash home buyers we’ve scored.

Customer experience
Bottom 50% locally
Simple Sell has a generally positive customer experience profile. Its lifetime feedback was mixed, backed by a moderate review record. The latest 3 months contained 2 1-star ratings — just 2 ratings, too few to establish a sustained trend. Its Customer Experience score of 69/100 places it below the middle of comparable cash buyers serving a single market.
Lifetime ratings. Lifetime feedback was mixed: 30 rated reviews averaged 4.3/5, with 25 five-star ratings and 5 one-star ratings. Reviews dated back to 2023. 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 0.14% adjustment to that signal. This subtracted less than 0.01 score points before the depth deduction and confidence limit.
Recent ratings. The latest 12 months contained 8 ratings averaging 3.5/5. The latest 6 months contained 2 1-star ratings. The latest 3 months contained 2 1-star ratings, through October 22, 2026.
Rating trends. The 3-month average fell from 4.33 lifetime to 1.00 — down 3.33 stars, or 76.9%. The one-star share rose from 16.7% to 100.0%, up 83.3 percentage points. The recent sample contained just 2 one-star ratings. It was too small to establish a sustained decline.
Common themes. A smooth process led the feedback, appearing in 8 of 17 detailed customer reviews (47%), followed by fast closings in 6 (35%) and compassionate treatment in 5 (29%). Negative themes included pressure in 4 (24%) and disrespectful treatment in 3 (18%). Reviews could mention multiple themes.
Review relevance. We classified 23 of 30 reviews (77%) as relevant to the home-selling experience. Another 5 concerned business partners. The remaining 2 reviews had too little text to analyze. All 30 star ratings remained in the lifetime rating record.
Recent activity
Bottom 50% locally
Company activity · As of October 22, 2026 — our latest collection date.
Simple Sell has recent review activity. Its recent review volume is higher than similar companies. The sparse recent review record limits the pace assessment. We lack direct business-activity data, including purchase figures. Its Activity score of 66/100 places it around the top 41% of comparable cash buyers serving a single market.
Recent review volume. The company received more reviews than similar companies across all 3 periods. We counted 8 reviews over 12 months, 2 over 6 months and 2 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 0.5× its lifetime average pace, compared with 0.9× over 3 months and 0.9× over 12 months. Recent rates averaged 0.3 reviews per month over 6 months, 0.7 over 3 months and 0.7 over 12 months, versus a lifetime average of 0.7. The record contains 30 reviews dating back to 2023. A few reviews can noticeably change the recent pace.
Review freshness. Its latest review on file was September 9, 2026 — less than 7 weeks old as of our last data refresh. 7% of all reviews appeared within the last 6 months, and the average review age was about 2 years.
Other business activity. We have no claimed directory profile, completed enhanced screening, business interview, or reviewed purchase figure on file.
Credibility signals
Bottom 50% locally
Simple Sell has an established credibility profile. We identified the company’s leadership and buying model, supported by a broad online presence. The main limits on its score were moderate website depth and transparency, unconfirmed business structure, and 3 years of documented review history. We identified 1 relevant complaint, but it did not result in a deduction.
Verification. We identified Google, Facebook, Yelp, and Trustpilot 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. Simple Sell has not claimed its directory profile or completed enhanced screening with our team.
Website assessment. The website was accessible when checked on September 29, 2026. The website scored 55/100 for depth and transparency. It includes buying and service information, the process and terms, and customer testimonials or work examples.
Business details. We identified Luis Rodriguez as the company’s founder. We could not confirm its business structure. The business information we reviewed identifies it as a direct buyer. No related businesses or DBAs were identified.
Track record. We could not confirm a company start date. Reviews on file date back to May 12, 2023. Reviews appear in 22 of the 42 months covered by our records.
Complaints and red flags. We identified 1 relevant complaint in a Google review. A seller alleges threatened litigation to compel a co-owner to convey her share after he signed a purchase agreement. The company says it never dealt with the reviewer and asks them to check its name. The contract, title and consent rights were unavailable; related accounts were treated as one dispute. Age alone does not establish incapacity. This account remains unverified.

Next steps if you’re considering Simple Sell

Confirm the purchase price, closing date, seller-paid costs, inspection or cancellation rights, and whether the contract can be assigned to another buyer.
-
Verify who is buying your home

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.
