"Spirit was very professional, efficient, and motivated from the start. He explained the entire process of listing and selling a home at the start and then continued to explain each step as we went along. He was able to list our home and get it under contract very quickly. When the initial offer/contract fell through, he was able to find another buyer and get us under contract again without losing any momentum. He was very helpful in explaining the inspection report and making recommendations for repairs, while also negotiating with the buyer and their agent. Overall, he was extremely responsive, honest, and transparent, and I would definitely recommend him to anyone selling a home in the Tucson area!"

"Spirit really helped us sell our house quickly. We listed our home with one of the leading companies and had zero.... that’s right ZERO showing on our move-in ready, desirable home after almost 6 weeks[...]We decided this company wasn’t working FOR us and met with Spirit after coming highly recommended by a close friend. Before our house was even back on the market, Spirit had shown it and in the first week we had 4 showings. This occurred over the holidays and we didn’t expect much but while Spirit was out of town, we were very pleased that his colleagues felt we should have an open house for the whole weekend, and we didn’t even have to ask. Spirit really worked with us and FOR us to get our home sold. Within a couple weeks, we’d had over 25 showings and 3 offers. My only regret is that I hadn’t found Spirit and his team earlier so we could have sold our house quicker. Spirit is professional and works hard for his clients. "

"Spirit has been a pleasure to work with, as he pays attention to detail and schedule, which was greatly appreciated. We highly recommend him. Spirit helped coordinate all the inspections that were required to be done on the house. He followed up with the owners and contractors to make sure the jobs were completed prior to the sale of the house. Except for one time to view the house, we have been coordinating the purchase from out of state and Spirit was a great help with handling all the paperwork in a timely manner."

"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 first reached out to Spirit through the Zillow app when my wife and I began our home search about a year ago. We had a great conversation and I was impressed with his knowledge of so many neighborhoods in Tucson as well as his passion for real estate- including genuine interest in the history and architecture of each area.
When my wife and I began our search in earnest, several months later, I contacted Spirit directly. He was attentive and responsive from the very start, listening to our goals and wishlist items to get a sense of our needs as well as our unique situation. He was very proactive and helpful throughout and brought many resources through his extensive local networks to bear on all aspects ya of the process (including lining up contractors and inspectors at the drop of a hat). Spirit is a courteous, knowledgeable and very efficient, motivated realtor."
-The Bald Avenger, 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 is honestly the most prompt and efficient realtor I have ever worked with. He couldn't have been more on top of things at every stage of the process. My husband and I also really appreciated his honesty in the home searching process. He did an amazing job educating us about what to look for and pointing out the pro's and con's of each home we visited. It was so clear that he truly wanted us to buy a home we love versus make a sale. We HIGHLY recommend working with Spirit to buy or sell a home. He's fantastic at what he does and is a truly kind and enjoyable person to be around!"
-Shaelyn82, 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
"We were looking to purchase a home in a state we don't currently live in and picked Spirit based on his great Zillow reviews. The 5-star rating is certainly justified - he is responsive, incredibly knowledgeable about his market and happy to share that knowledge, as well as very accommodating. We flew in for one day of viewings and he was able to put together a schedule to see 10+ properties all over the city in just a few hours. We had an offer in and accepted within a couple of days and the whole process through close has been easy and enjoyable. Plus he's just a nice guy!"
-Adrienne W., Client
"Spirit not only offers years of experience, but a lot of tranquility for a stressful process. His expertise with the areas and market provide a BIG relief that truly makes for a great relationship. You need someone you can trust and help guide you through the process and there is no one better. He helped keep us in the area we preferred (Central), knew the neighborhood and school districts well."
-Crys L., Client
"Spirit is the real deal. You don't have to look any further...call him immediately if you are buying or selling a home. Spirit helped us sell our home that had been listed for awhile and we began to think was unsellable.
Pros: 1. He has sold tons of homes, which means he has immense experience and expertise. This is invaluable. You need a realtor who knows the market, neighborhood, homes, what works and what doesn't. 2. He will be straight with you. He's super likable and a great person, and at the same time will be truthful regarding your home and what you need to do. I appreciated this balance. 3. That's right, there's no other person you talk to when you have a question about your home or need paperwork filled out. 4. He gives you a weekly update. Every. single. week. 5. He gets the job done. Call him and talk to him.
Cons: The ONLY con I can think of is that I think he needs to take a vacation once in awhile. "
-Lana G., Client
"Spirit is the best! He is a local expert and knows everything about the market. Professional, easy to work with, and always thinking ahead about what's next in the buying process. His expertise comes in handy at every step of the process, and we wouldn't trust anyone else!"
-Erin LW, Client
"Spirit was awesome! The sale was a tad more difficult due to the construction of a new home that was being built in the lot in front of our home. He hung in and eventually our home was sold."
-Dennis P., Client
"Spirit is extremely responsive, he knew the central market really well and we were able to get full asking price for my house. He doesn't seem to let little details slip by, which was extremely helpful during the process."
-zuser20150404103319694, Client
"Spirit has helped me buy two houses and sell one of them. Each time he was professional and extremely knowledgeable. When I bought my first house with my then wife, he knew exactly where to go and that the market would be in our favor. In two years, when I divorced, we made a killing on it, just as he said. He then helped me buy my current house. In short, if you want someone in your corner and want to be in central Tucson, go see Spirit!!!!!!!!!"
-Tucson 1006, Client
"Spirit was recommended to us by a friend and he did not disappoint. He listened to what we wanted in a home and made sure to find options that fit us. Spirit obviously loves his job and was willing to go the extra mile to help us find our forever home! We highly recommend him!"
-Emily S., 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
"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
"Spirit's local knowledge was extremely helpful in understanding the pulse of Tucson real estate, being aware of current and future urban projects and developments, neighborhood-by-neighborhood historical pricing, pros and cons of local properties and conditions compared to other Tucson homes. Highly recommended if you are looking for a local, informed view into this real estate market. Thanks again, Spirit!"
-hellocward, 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
"When I needed to get the job done, I turned to Spirit and he delivered! He is personable, professional, and an expert at Central Tucson as advertised. By going the extra mile and working fast on our behalf, Spirit helped my family find the best fit for our needs at a great price! I'm so grateful for his time, attention, responsiveness, and high ethical standards. Happy in my new home, I highly recommend Spirit for anyone looking to buy or sell!"
-TwoNJenn, 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
"I cannot say enough great things about Spirit. Fact of the matter is, we very likely would not have gotten our dream home if it weren't for him. Everything we wanted, we got. He even brought along a crew - "Team Spirit" - lender, inspectors, title company.... everyone he suggested was absolutely amazing USE THEM. I was getting the runaround from a lot of lenders until I used the one he suggested, and everything became so much more smooth after - we even closed 3 weeks early! He is extremely knowledgeable not only about the real estate market, but all the ins and outs of the home search and what should/should not be acceptable for your future home. He was honest and really was value added when it came to looking at homes, which I appreciated greatly. Spirit took care of everything for us, this process was so much less stressful because of him and his hard work. We were able to enjoy the process and know that we were in good hands, there is no better compliment than that!"
-Ally F., 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
"This was our second time working with Spirit. The first was buying a home and now selling. We have really appreciated his dedication and knowledge in this field. He enjoys what he does! He is personable, organized, knows how to get things done efficiently, communicates well and is on the ball with time sensitive matters. He goes above and beyond and offers his wisdom with every step and also listens to our thoughts. We really appreciated this, since he has a broader—more experienced view. We had a tight timeline and appreciated that it went so smooth and quick! With all he’s helped us with, we definitely feel it’s worth it to have a realtor & Spirit has gone above and beyond for us. Couldn’t be more grateful & happy with our experience! Thanks Spirit!!!!"
-Laura F., Client
"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
"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's skill and expertise guided me through a challenging real estate transaction and closing.
He has a wide base of knowledge essential in negotiating contracts.
Thanks, Spirit."
-Veronica Y., Client
"Amazing Realtor was always prompt to respond with informed answers. Great marketing and planning my home went under contract in 10hours. Spirit felt more like a friend than my realtor I can't recommend him enough for your buying or selling needs!"
-derekash71, 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
"This is transaction number 12 in my lifetime… Spirit is a phenomenal broker. Everything was smooth and flawless. His organizational skills and selling our house were simply perfect. Highly recommended to say the least."
-John H., Client
"We feel so fortunate to have had Spirit as our realtor. He exceeded our expectations with every step of the home buying process. From his prompt responses to our questions to knowledge about the different neighborhoods of Tucson, we were consistently pleased with all he had to offer as a realtor. He blends professionalism with personality seamlessly. We would not hesitate to recommend Spirit to anyone!"
-Allison W., Client
"Spirit has surpassed all our expectations. He is an excellent communicator which sets him apart from the his competitors. We were blessed to have found him!!"
-ericsatti1997, 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 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
"Spirit is highly knowledgeable of the Tucson market and diligent in his work. He is also detailed oriented and works quickly on obtaining information to make the buying/selling process easier."
-Sean R., Client
"Spirit listed my home for sale and advised me as to what I needed to do to get it ready for sale, what the proper listing price should be and what to expect along every step of the way. We sold the home quickly and for a great price and most importantly, Spirit kept me informed throughout the process. I felt I was fully represented and as if I was his number one priority. Selling a house can be very stressful and he made it practically stress free. I will recommend him to anyone who needs a realtor, and if I ever buy or sell again, I am sure I would want him to represent me."
-Sharon B., 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."
-April L., Client
"I have worked with Spirit previously and I will continue to use his expertise when it comes to real estate. His knowledge through the difficult and stressful process of home buying was much appreciated. He is awesome and I would highly recommend working with him."
-Dean S., Client
"My husband and I are first time home buyers, just moved from Ohio to AZ and knew absolutely nothing about the homes in Tucson, let alone anything about living in the desert/ Tucson area. Spirit was such a fantastic agent throughout this process, and we truly couldn't recommend him enough. He was patient, transparent, communicative, and flexible. He listened to what was important to us, offered his incredible expertise when asked and needed, and found us a home that we are over the moon to move into. Spirit is reliable and we appreciate his honesty throughout this process; he made finding our home into a invaluable experience where we learned SO much. We are forever grateful for all the work, support, and guidance he put in for us and should we need an agent again, we will definitely ask Spirit. You will not be disappointed in choosing Spirit!"
-Breanna L., Client
"Spirit went above and beyond to provide us a stellar experience when selling our home and buying a new one. Even though he has many clients, Spirit makes you feel as though you are his only client and his number one priority. One, of many, things we truly appreciated was how he educated us throughout the whole process. He took the time to explain every step, give us the pros and cons of every decision, and he thoroughly answered every question we had (which was a lot). Additionally, anytime we emailed, texted, or called him with a question he responded immediately, no matter the day or time (I'm pretty sure he never sleeps).
A couple of days before Christmas we saw a house pop up in the portal he created for us. It looked perfect and we knew it would sell fast. Despite it being the holidays he happily dropped everything to come show it to us. Long story short, we got the house and we love it!
"
-Jess F., Client
"We really lucked out getting Spirit’s help with our search for a house in Tucson. His local knowledge was extremely helpful as we really know nothing about the area. He showed us a number of houses on very short notice. His expertise is amazing.
When we are ready to purchase a home in Tucson, we will definitely want Spirit as our realtor!"
-user5684231, 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."

-Lind S., 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
"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
"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
"Mr. Messinghams method/skill of pricing and negotiating resulted in selling my property for more than I thought market conditions warranted, he knows when to hold and when to fold. Additionally, he was able to list my property very quickly and he expertly guided me through every step despite being handicapped by my out-of-state relocation. I feel he did an outstanding job of looking out for his client!"
-zuser20170108183601270, 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.
