Combining comprehensive industry knowledge, extensive sales experience, and innovative technology, her boutique luxury firm, Baker & Co., is securely rooted in tradition and personal service.

My family has been building, selling, and remodeling homes for four generations in the Houston area. Real estate is in my DNA. My firm specializes in providing clients with top tier, individualized service. I continue to build on my family's legacy by incorporating social media and cutting-edge technology into my business, blending a modern approach with a traditional work ethic.

Jaime's commitment to exceptional service has resulted in Baker & Co. being selected as the exclusive representative of Forbes Global Properties in the Houston area.

I believe that our relationship with Forbes Global Properties is the perfect pairing. Their brand is synonymous with quality, and their international clients expect a superior level of service. We are the luxury real estate experts in Houston; we provide a premium experience from start to finish.

From an early age Jaime understood the importance of home - what it means to individuals, to families, and to communities. Jaime is a 10th generation, native Houstonian who traces her family's roots in the Katy area back before the Civil War. She grew up in the town largely built by her family. The Bakers moved to the area in the 1840s and established a successful general contracting business. Each succeeding generation has added to the legacy, most recently Jaime's father, a highly respected remodeling specialist for more than 40 years. Jaime absorbed lessons about great design from her father and instinctively knew that her life's mission would be to guide others in finding their perfect home. Her family is prominently featured in the January 2016 Legacy Families edition of the Katy Magazine, and again in the 2018 Katy Magazine article titled Cornerstone Legacy Families of Katy, Texas.

Despite her youthful appearance, Jaime brings an unusual depth of knowledge to her profession. She earned her real estate salesman's license (and sold her first home) while a full-time student at Texas State University, where she also participated in the Delta Zeta sorority, graduated with honors, and received a degree in Interdisciplinary Studies with emphasis on Mass Communications, Business Administration, and Consumer Science. She parlayed her skills into a job locating homes and apartments for clients in the San Marcos, New Braunfels, Kyle, and Austin areas. After graduation Jaime transitioned to luxury new construction home sales in Houston, gaining valuable firsthand experience with new home design and construction.

My knowledge of real estate sales and home construction provides my clients with a powerful advantage, Jaime says. I can suggest basic changes and improvements to maximize the appeal and value of my client's properties and offer guidance to help buyers see the potential in a prospective home purchase. I never give up. I make my best effort in every instance to see that my clients' goals and expectations are met and exceeded.

Jaime has earned both the Graduate Realtor Institute (GRI) and Certified Negotiation Expert (CNE) designations. She is exceptionally proficient in current and emerging real estate industry technology and is personable, grounded, and unafraid to think outside the box to surmount a challenge.

She recognized the tremendous potential of social media as a marketing tool. Prior to founding Baker & Co., Jaime taught social media classes for colleagues, coaching them to connect with clients in cyberspace. That resourcefulness earned her a spot on Property Spark's Top 20 Young Real Estate Agents on Social Media 2017. My great-grandmother was an industry leader, becoming the President of the Texas Women's Council of REALTORS® and the Vice President of the National Women's Council of REALTORS®. She also helped develop the multiple listing service, which became the basis for the current MLS used by REALTORS® nationwide. I come from a long line of innovators!

Although she is driven to excel in her profession, Jaime strives for balance, practicing yoga, playing tennis, cooking, and traveling. She is interested in metaphysical disciplines, including astrology and numerology. As an Enneagram type 4, Jaime has an innate understanding of the needs and feelings of others. Her knack for imaginative and creative deep-thinking continues to benefit her clients, who from the outset of her career have called her a force and predicted her rapid rise in the Houston real estate establishment.
