"If you need someone to get the job done, that person is Spirit Messingham. I am a first-time home buyer. I did all my research, read a ton online, and went to open houses. I even listened to podcasts on first time home buying. I was on a mission to find my dream home and needed an amazing realtor to guide me. I had interviewed and researched dozens of them. I was contacted by Spirit initially on a home that I looked at. He took the time to talk to me even though I was not his client yet. He is the real deal and yes—a true unicorn realtor. His knowledge of the industry is unparalleled, and he is so willing to share it. I thought I knew a lot, but I learned so much from him. He listens and gets to know you as a buyer. He is almost always available (7 days a week) and works to help you meet your goals. He says things out loud that you are thinking and will keep you on track with your intention and goals for your future home. "

  -Tuan V., Client

"Highly recommend Spirit! We were out of state buyers searching, touring, and closing virtually amid a pandemic and hot market. Spirit is exceptionally communicative and always available and timely. Spirit is also proactive in his approaches and communications and makes everything very easy for buyers. On top of that Spirit has added value of extreme market and Tucson area knowledge and a keen eye for detail that serves buyers well as an added value. We felt this at our interview with Spirit and glad our instincts were right and we were in great hands for our search!"

  -William K., Client

"Spirit is a experience professional and a master on what he does. I would strongly recommend to anyone selling/buying their house. Even though he is a very busy real state professional in Tucson you are not going to even feel it because of the quality of time that he spends on you and the rapidness of his responses. He is always available and on top of everything. This is my first time selling and it was a smooth and easy process thanks to him. What I like the most is that he will support your ideas and give you advise for you to get the best! The reviews that he has from everyone are 100 % accurate you will get the best of the best his experience and his customer service are amazing! Thank you Spirit!"

  -Sal O., Client

"I have bought and sold 5 homes in 4 states over 40+ years and Spirit provided service at an unparalleled high level. He clearly knows the Tucson market very well. His knowledge of the entire buying and selling process is remarkable. He's an effective listener and stands out particularly for the speed of his responses to inquiries. Spirit offers valuable information without wandering into providing unsolicited advice. My recommendation comes with no reservations or qualifications."

  -dagmfg6, Client

"Spirit was a fantastic resource throughout the entire buying process. As a first time home buyer there were many things I was encountering for the first time, however Spirit was great in explaining and leading the entire process. Furthermore, as an out of state buyer, Spirit made this is a very seamless experience. I would highly recommend to anyone."

  -Kevin S., Client

"We just closed on a house in Tucson with Spirit. We are out of state investors and needed someone with experience and great knowledge of the area to guide us through the process. In Spirit we found exactly that. He was very helpful and did his best to understand our needs and find the home that we were looking for. We definitely recommend him and we'll use him for our next purchase."

  -Anton S., Client

"Spirit is very professional. Every time I called or texted him, I was talking with him and not a secretary or a team. I got my answers immediately. He said he was going to give us an update every Friday - and he did. He dealt with the clients and found us a buyer in a matter of days, and took all the work out of our hands. We will use him again."

  -theone 72, Client

"I am an out of town buyer. Hence, communication was paramount. Spirit gives the impression that you are his only client. And, if you are ever on the ledge worrying about the thousands of dollars you are now pledging, he calmly talks you down making you feel comfortable in your decision. All along the way I felt he looked out for me and my son with regards to location, safety and the quality of the properties. Bottom line--If you want the most experienced realtor, look no further. I've dealt with many and his knowledge of properties, inspections, neighborhoods is unmatched."

  -Christopher P., Client

"Spirit is trustworthy, hardworking and capable. That is probably all that I would need to tell you about a real state agent. But the best part is that he is also a super nice guy. He understands that a house is also a home and finds pride and joy on finding a good place for people to live in. He does this without letting it get on the way of business: he works to get a reasonable price for your house (if you are selling) and to find you the house you want at a reasonable price (if you are buying). Spirit can do this because he knows the neighborhoods and, most impressively, he can tell you which houses were sold when and how over the last years. He really has the pulse for how the market is evolving in the area and what you can expect. If you are dealing with real state, give him a call. You can thank me later."

  -P.S., Client

"Spirit has been absolutely amazing throughout the process of selling our home. He is incredibly professional, excellent with quick and clear communication, and always made me feel that he had time for me. He calmed my nerves when I needed it and has gotten us through this sale with the least amount of stress possible. I always felt like he was acting in our best interest and that he was there for us at any time. He's a straight-shooter and really knows the market. I am so grateful that I chose Spirit to be our realtor. You will be too!"

  -murralison, Client

"Would absolutely recommend Spirit! Reached out through Zillow and he was in contact immediately. Very kind and knowledgeable. Thanks for all your help!"

  -Ash Sch, Client

"very professional and extremely honest. He is well connected to the industry and has the connections to make it happen. Priced my home higher than I thought, but assured me it would sell. He was able to bring interested buyers who saw the value the property represented and it sold for the full asking price. Couldn't be more pleased. Will be using Spirit for any needs in the future."

  -Jerry D., Client

"Spirit was very knowledgeable about the local real estate market. He helped us price our property correctly and it sold quickly. When we had questions about the process, Spirit was quick to answer and offer advice. We will work with Spirit again on real estate transactions, he has gained our trust and respect."

  -montanokd, Client

"Spirit is a ‘standout’ in the real estate industry. He provides so much knowledge and insight for his clients that you feel more confident in your decision making and the process as you navigate through a purchase. More importantly he trustworthy and kind to all."

  -Mary M., Client

"Spirit is the right real estate agent for you. We found ourselves in a unique situation, ended up purchasing the house we were renting and could not have made that purchase without him in our corner. Before committing to buying, he arranged for proper inspections of the property and professionally walked us through all the legalities that come with buying a home. It was our first house for either of us and we really valued Spirit's experience!"

  -arbyrantz, Client

"Spirit is a truly gifted professional! He brought a wealth of knowledge to the table when it came to pricing my home. He really knows the market and has a great understanding of the central Tucson housing area. He was brilliant at finding solutions and bringing a calm/balanced perspective when I experienced problems along the way. Remarkably, his solutions always actually led to me finding myself--financially and contractually--in a better place than before the problems originally arose. When these problems outside of my control came up, Spirit was totally who I wanted in my corner. What would be almost unmanageable without Spirit, ultimately was a huge success. I will be forever grateful that Spirit was my realtor on this transaction. I feel wonderfully fortunate that Spirit guided me through this process!"

  -Matt H., Client

"Spirit knows Central Tucson like no one. He helps me to buy my first home. He was patience explain me the entire process. Even with a short notice, he could make space to show me houses. The level of experience he has is incredible. He got me a house in the first intent. I am super happy with my house and with the personalize service that Spirit offered me."

  -Etienne B., Client

"Spirit is an expert and knows every block of Tucson inside and out. He will find you the exact house you are looking for and negotiate the best price for you. He is honest with his feedback which was extremely valuable! We will be using Spirit in the future for our future home purchases!"

  -Erin W., Client

"Spirit is a dedicated, responsive, and extremely knowledgeable agent who is committed to ensuring his clients’ success. As a first time seller, he made sure we knew the process and what to expect, answered questions, and let us know when we had options for how to deal with any particular situation. I highly recommend anyone looking to buy or sell in Tucson reach out to Spirit first. He can also recommend the most squared away Title company and spot shady lenders a mile away and steer you clear. Definitely a safe bet to go with Spirit."

  -Victoria S., Client

"My wife and I used Spirit to sell our house in midtown (Pima and Alvernon). We were beyond satisfied with the results! Throughout the process he guided us on what steps would be work taking and what wouldn’t. He was always available for questions and kept us constantly updated on progress. During the negotiation process, he provided prompt, expert advice. Finally, when the title agency failed to be responsive on the eve of closing, Spirit stepped in to make sure everything went smoothly. I would (and have) recommend Spirit for anyone’s real estate needs."

  -J T Walters3, Client

"I was in a hurry to buy a home as I was moving from another city. Spirit was the best guy to make this happen. He has an excellent knowledge of the area and what it will take to put your best foot forward in the buying process. Found a great place. Then we worked towards getting this done quickly and efficiently. He is always available to his customer. He is reliable...when he says he's going to do something, rest assured, it gets done. Through the entire process, Spirit was available to address any questions or concerns I had. I would highly recommend him if you are buying or selling property."

  -ccw2268, Client

"Spirit hand walked me through the whole process of buying my first home. He was available at almost every time I reached out with my many questions and if he wasn’t free at that second he contacted me as soon as he was available without fail. We went to look at countless homes and he wasn’t afraid to voice his opinion and kept my interests, safety, and wants in mind. I couldn’t be happier with my experience and would suggest him to anyone!"

  -Ashley N., Client

"This was our second transaction with Spirit. He helped us purchase this home in 2020, and now sell the same property in 2021. When circumstances beyond our control required us to sell, without any hesitation we contacted Spirit. To say it was an easy, fast, painless experience is the understatement of the year. We never even had to list the house! Spirit's massive network of connections/clients landed us buyers before the house was even scheduled to hit the market. We feel beyond fortunate to have such a talented, honest reliable realtor at our fingertips. It's not often that transactions like these end so smoothly (especially in such a hot market) and we're forever grateful to have had Spirit guiding the way. He ensured that despite such a chaotic time in our lives, we have a great memory to look back on. Without any hesitation, we will recommend Spirit to anyone looking to buy or sell in Tucson."

  -sunkenhopes, Client

"I highly recommend Spirit as an experienced Tucson-area realtor. I have used him to both sell a home and buy a home and both experiences were seamless. He has great knowledge of local neighborhoods and is an aggressive advocate for his clients, whether as a buyer or a seller!"

  -Aaron R., Client

"Our experience was somewhat unique in that we were out of state buyers, did not know anyone in the area and purchased virtually before seeing it in person-all during a pandemic! Spirit was amazing and helped us every step of the way. We trusted his guidance and opinions. Spirit always got back to us timely and stayed on top of things even though everything was handled via phone or email. Spirit is an expert and knows his stuff, we would use him again and recommend him. I found him on Zillow and first read reviews and the 5 star reviews are accurate. Thank you Spirit!"

  -bmfry2007, Client

"Spirit's knowledge and experience proved to be invaluable during the home buying process. As a first time home buyer, I was unsure of many of the steps associated with it. Spirit did an outstanding job not only of explaining each step, but making me feel at ease. I would not hesitate to recommend Spirit to any one looking to buy/sell a home!"

  -Drew R., Client

"It has been a long process but finally was able to buy a home. I was fortunate to have an expert and seasoned realtor along the way with me which made it easier and more tolerable. Spirit Messingham is one of the best people for the job. He is in your corner, knows his stuff top to bottom, and has a way of reminding you to keep your eye on the prize and be realistic. He does his best to make it happen for you. Highly recommend. Bat mobile comes with him."

  -sfmvodo, Client

"Spirit knows his stuff! He is quick in responding to my questions and when there is a "problem" between buyer and seller, he is able to quickly identify the issue and figure out a way to correct it. Spirit is easy going and great to work with!"

  -kassandra34, Client

"Spirit was excellent in our home buying process. He works tirelessly to help and is always communicative and available. I would strongly endorse using him for anyone looking to go through the home buying experience. We would use him in the future."

  -Edward B., Client

"We worked with Spirit on the sale and purchase of our homes. Selling our home with Spirit was a great experience. His knowledge of real estate (he'll give you all of the info, whether you want it or not :-) ), the central region, and his commitment made the process smooth and stress free. He was always there to answer our questions or concerns. I highly recommend Spirit for either selling or buying, he is top notch."

  -Stephanie D., Client

"Spirit goes above and beyond on all aspects of his profession. He is professional, prompt, organized and knows all the ins and outs of real estate. He listens to what your goals are and then adopts them as his own and makes the goal become reality. His high energy positive attitude makes buying or selling a home a enjoyable experience. If you want honest advice, and your transaction completed in record time, Spirit is the only realtor for you!"

  -Sara B., Client

"I would wholeheartedly recommend Spirit to anyone looking to buy a home in Tucson. It didn't take long for Spirit to understand exactly what I was looking for and narrow down the search accordingly. The real estate market in Tucson is currently booming and we knew if we found one that fit my needs, that we would need to act fast. He shared with me a listing of a home that he knew fit all my requirements. We put an offer within just a few hours of the home being on the market, and even though we ran into a multi-offer situation, Spirit made sure that, within reason, we made the best choices to ensure I would get the house. From there, the entire process was a breeze. Spirit is extremely knowledgeable (for the most part I feel he could probably do the various home inspections himself better than the experts) and I couldn't have asked for a better experience."

  -Vero B., Client

"I have lived in Tucson for well over 45 years and have known many real estate agents. I consider Spirit quite simply the best of all in this city. In every aspect of real estate sales I cannot imagine anybody coming close to him. His negotiation skills are incomparable, and the best part of these is he never did any sort of arm-twisting with me. He was always on the point and presented pros and cons without any sort of manipulative cleverness or dishonesty. Always prompt and always considerate, he inspired the kind of confidence in me that I generally never had in real estate agents. In fact, that is what made me pay attention to anything he said. I am very glad I chose him to sell my home."

  -sraval1945, Client

"I contacted Spirit to ask if he would be interested in helping my wife and I in exploring Tucson and the real estate market. I explained right away that we weren't sure we were ready to buy but wanted to get to know Tucson. Spirit told me he understood and couldn't have been more helpful. He showed us several properties and gave us a tour of Tucson. He knows Tucson and the real estate market extremely well. If we decide to take the plunge we will definitely use Spirit. I highly recommend him."

  -Jamesemcm, Client

"Buying or selling, use Spirit! Using anyone else is a mistake. He helped me do both. Fast and easy with no stress. He specializes in central Tucson. When I buy again, I’ll totally call Spirit. He understands the neighborhood, schools, and the value of the house."

  -aconroy1, Client

"If you want a team of real estate agents to molly-coddle you through the buying or selling process M-F from 9am to 5pm, don’t go with Spirit. If you want the best damn real estate agent I have ever worked with (this is our 2nd house), then yes, go with Spirit Messingham. He knows every inch of Tucson to a degree that astonished me. He will answer your texts at 10pm (don’t ask!) He will share your excitement for a new home. He helped us negotiate a house down by $25k from asking price in a booming seller’s market, and then got Seller Concessions on top of that! He also told us when we needed to cool our jets and give him time to work. And you need that sometimes too! He is an EXPERT, and when it comes to real estate, the customer is often wrong. He doesn’t make you feel bad for being wrong, but he doesn’t leave you questioning what will and won’t work in Tucson’s housing market. He is the real estate you want if you want the best house at the best price with the best deal."

  -Douglas M., Client

"Spirit was knowledge about the area of our home, letting others know it is up and coming. He was consistently professional during the entire process, making sure everyone followed within their given guidelines. He was very responsive, mostly within minutes, even when it was known he was busy with other things. He went above and beyond to highlight the features of our home in order to help sell it at a great price."

  -Amy M., Client

"Spirit was able to sell my home very quickly and at a price higher than asking. He provided great recommendations on what would be the best way to go about selling the home. He was consistently professional during the entire process, making sure everyone followed within their given guidelines. He was very responsive, mostly within minutes, even when it was known he was busy with other things."

  -Amy H., Client

"Spirit provided the highest quality service one could ask for when looking to purchase a home in Tucson. His market knowledge was invaluable in helping us choose the right location. We are not local to Tucson so his insight and guidance was crucial in finding the right house. Once we identified the home we wished to purchase, Spirit advised how we should structure our offer to stand out in this crazy, highly competitive market. Happily, we are under contract and will close shortly. Spirit managed all inspections, guided us on reviewing documents, reminded us to set up utilities, and paid attention to all those details that go into purchasing a home. I highly recommend Spirit for your buying or selling needs in Tucson."

  -Nancy G., Client

"Spirit is a GEM. We are so grateful to have had his help, guidance and support during our home buying process. We bought a house, sight unseen and 1,500 miles away during a global pandemic, and felt confident doing so thanks to him. Spirit knows Tucson and will give it to you straight. He will help you find the absolute best option out there within your perimeters. His wonderful relationships with other realtors, lenders and contractors is impressive. Due to who he is and how he conducts business with such integrity, we were able to get our perfect place. Even in a hot real estate market. I only wish there were many more stars that I could leave for Spirit. I wouldn't be surprised if he has a superhero cape. You'll see what I mean."

Local knowledge Process expertise Responsiveness Negotiation skills I am a first time home buyer. I never thought owning a home was a possibility for me due to student loans and being a single woman. Spirit helped me to believe in myself and became not only a trustworthy relator, but also a friend who helped me through this process. I had zero knowledge when it came to buying a home and Spirit graciously, patiently, and professional walked me through, step by step. He was incredibly proactive in finding homes that he knew would fit my budget and lifestyle. Spirit is not only an expert in his field but is passionate about helping people. Buying a home for me is an incredible investment and will help me financially for years to come; I could have never done this with out his help. Spirit has been such a blessing!"

  -Leigh Anne D., Client

"A a few years ago Spirit had helped me find my first home and was fantastic! When it came time to sell he was the only realtor I had ever considered. He had my home under contract in two days after only one showing! Spirit has extensive knowledge and experience in real estate and will take his time to explain how the process works and answer any questions, no matter how trivial they might seem. He has excellent working relationships with other realtors which has defintley helped streamline the whole process. Spirit has been my realtor for a total of three transactions: buying my first home, selling my first home, and buying my second home. All three have been as painless as possible as that is due to Spirit’s knowledge, organization, and communication. My experience with Spirit has shown me that he is a man of integrity with a passion for real estate."

  -mtbgunner, Client

"Spirit is a responsive, knowledgeable, resourceful and very personable realtor. As first-time home buyers, we appreciated his frankness, patience, and particularly the time he took to carefully walk us through the process and to answer all of our questions. We felt confident and comfortable going into the transaction under his guidance and learnt a lot from him in the process."

  -aazaz, Client

"Spirit was very professional and a great asset as we purchased our first investment property in a hot sellers market. As soon as I contacted Spirit, he scheduled an appointment to talk with me the next day. We are out of state buyers, and Spirit directed us through the different central Tucson neighborhoods to select an ideal property. We found a property right away with a short deadline to make an offer. Spirit was so prompt with connecting us to a lender and walking us through writing a strong offer. We were able to turn around an offer within 24 hours of the property being listed and we beat out multiple offers, and all because he had very strong connections and established relationships in the Tucson real estate market. We will definitely be working with Spirit again, and I highly recommend him as a real estate agent. He takes the time to understand your needs and goals, and is very responsive to his clients."

  -Christine V., Client

"Spirit Messingham is by far the best realtor we have ever worked with! He helped my family sell our home very quickly and provided the advice we needed. He is extremely knowledgable and is very prompt responding to any questions. Spirit provides the highest quality of service whether you are buying/selling a $10 million home or a $50k condo. We would recommend him to all of our friends and family looking to buy or sell a home as we know he would take great care of them. He is simply the best!!!"

  -Anthony P., Client

"Spirit is a very detailed and professional realtor. My wife and I presented Spirit with a very complicated set of circumstances, an estate sale with a tight time schedule, the sale of every thing we own, and moving out of the country. Spirit pulled all of this together and sold the house without a hickup in less than a month. Spirit’s team provided a marketing plan including professional grade drone video of our property, house pictures, and an up-dated floor plan drawing that showed we actually had an additional 60 square feet of interior space. Spirit’s knowledge of the Tucson real estate market, and excellent communication skill set made us feel very comfortable and he was always available for any question that we had. Our family would highly recommend Spirit."

  -jwsherlock52, Client

"Spirit was our agent when we bought our house in 2015, and again when we sold the same house six years later in 2021. Thus we have very good knowledge of Spirit as both buyer's and seller's agent. He does an excellent job for his clients. We will work with him again when we look to repurchase in the future."

  -rezro, Client

"Spirit was great to work with. If your looking for a knowledgeable and hardworking individual he is the one for you! He is great on response time and puts a lot of time effort and passion into his job."

  -kirchberger, Client

"Simply put, Spirit is a master of his craft. His work ethic alone would warrant an excellent review. But combined with his knowledge of Tucson as a whole, attention to detail, professionalism, and a genuine supportiveness to those he is working with marks him as one of the best at what he does. As a first time home buyer he was patient, informative, and provided solid guidance when needed. His reputation with other professionals was paramount in securing a house and paved the way for a completely smooth home buying experience. I can easily advocate Spirit to anyone looking to work with a quality real estate professional/person as a whole!"

  -Wyatt S., Client

"Spirit is detail oriented, always follow through and knows the market in Tucson inside and out.
