"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."

"We can't recommend Spirit more highly! Selling our house has taken nearly 10 months (a week before we were scheduled to list a tree crushed our roof). He checked in regularly and even referred us to amazing contractors. Once the roof was repaired, we hit the market and had offers almost right away (even though this coincided with the beginning of the pandemic and shutdown). Spirit communicates frequently to let you know how showings are going and what type of feedback the property is getting from showings. He made us first-time sellers feel totally at ease throughout the whole process. The two things you will love most about working with Spirit: he is really easy to get in touch with (answers calls/texts/emails within hours), and perhaps even more importantly, he is just a really nice person!"
-Kris M., 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
"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
"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
"My husband and I used Spirit to sell our Tucson home when we relocated to Denver. We had an exceptional experience with Spirit. We sold in three days over asking price. The entire transaction was seamless and we would certainly use him again if in the Tucson area. Spirit was great at keeping us informed all the way up to closing as we were already in Denver. Spirit is a true professional and it is evident that he takes real pride in the way he conducts business."
-Leona30305, 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
"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
"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
"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 was a pleasure to work with. As a first time homebuyer I had very little knowledge on what to do. Spirit was helpful, responsive, and very knowledgeable about the area I wanted to purchase in (Central Tucson). It was his connections and experience that ultimately helped me get a house in a crazy market. I would definitely recommend Spirit to anyone looking for a house."
-sgsantillan, Client
"My spouse and I were impressed with Spirit Messingham's speedy and intelligent expertise. His communication style was direct and helpful. As out of state home buyers, his knowledge about the importance of location in Tucson and pricing was invaluable. When we were ready to make an offer, he was available on a Saturday and major holiday. We highly recommend Spirit."
-aimeeandphil, 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 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
"I recently sold a house with Spirit and while this can be a very stressful process, I felt 110% confident by partnering with him. I was also in the middle of a contested divorce and he was such a diplomat and professional. He was candid, provided great feedback, helped explain clearly all details and managed to push when needed. He handled negotiation brilliantly. In addition, he was extremely responsive to every one of both of our questions. I am extremely certain Spirit will be the right partner to help anyone in ANY situation navigate this process."
-thecedgroup, 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 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 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 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
"When I started looking for my first Home I never expected I would be putting an offer in on my dream home four days later, but that’s exactly what Spirit Messingham did for me.
It is not ironic that the man’s name is Spirit because he is truly an angel of a man. I had no idea what I was doing but he held my hand through the whole process and made everything easy. Spirit was also able to connect me with the best financing/loan officer in Tucson who was just as careful to guide me along my path.
Five weeks later now and I am sitting out side of the local cable company getting ready to pick up my modem for my brand new and gorgeous home. Never has anything so difficult been made so simple and easy. If Spirit tells you to do something, jump! The man truly knows what he’s doing and is an asset to the Tucson community. Thank You Spirit. I’ll definitely see you when it’s time to buy the next one!"
-soliloquy4me, Client
"This was the second time I worked with Spirit, but now I was selling the home he originally helped me buy. I was changing jobs and moving out of the state, and my new company's relocation package would only cover all of my selling costs if I used one of their realtors. I chose my own anyway and went with Spirit, because he is worth it. He knows the business like no one else. I was living in a different state, my father was in the hospital, and I was going through one of the most stressful periods in my life. But I was not stressed about selling my house, because I could trust Spirit to take care of things. He did the same thing he did when I bought the house. He was responsive, courteous, and most importantly, extremely competent. I wouldn't settle for anyone else if I were buying or selling in Tucson."
-zuser20180612095336048, Client
"As a first time home owner, I was expecting to be overwhelmed and stressed throughout this entire process. However, Spirit's patience, attention to detail, and experience made this entire process stress-free for me. He explained each step of the process and was readily available to answer any and all of my 100+ questions. More importantly, Spirit puts his clients first. Meaning he doesn't pressure you, he looks for what you're looking for in a home, prioritizes safety, and provides open and honest opinions. I couldn’t have ask for a better agent to work with and I highly recommend him, Spirit is simply the best."
-Cass G., 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 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
"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
"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
"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
"Spirit is thorough and helpful, and willing to go the extra mile. Very responsive, which is an exceptional attribute in this process! I have recommended him to my friends and family repeatedly, and can recommend him here again without qualms."
-Kate 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 the best Agent! He has so much knowledge, depth and experience which allows him to make detailed suggestions on how to handle the ever changing Tucson market. Buying a house is a stressful process combined with us being from another state really kicked it up a notch. Spirit's wonderful and calm personality was helpful for us with all our questions and decision making. He also has fantastic industry connections we relied on to give us insight into what issues were troublesome and how to deal with other areas of concern.
We are so glad we chose Spirit to represent us. You will be too!"
-zuser20140608202726170, 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
"If you are looking for a hardworking, knowledgeable and seasoned realtor, Spirit is your man! My experience with him was top notch! He knows his business, does what he says he'll do and within the timeframe he says he'll do it. My transaction went quickly, smoothly and without any hassles or problems. He knows the ever-changing market and works hard to get you top dollar. Spirit is a true professional! Thank you Spirit!"
-lblowers17, 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 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
"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
"Our third time working with Spirit and another amazing experience! Spirit has helped us to sell 2 homes and to buy one. This most recent sale was typical Spirit. He knows the neighborhoods, the market, and is excellent at guiding a seller or buyer through every step of the process. He will provide you with candid and real feedback and opinions on any considerations. You can't go wrong selecting Spirit to help you buy or sell a home. Thanks again Spirit!"
-James F., Client
"This is the second time we have used Spirit. He works hard to give you what you need. It it very rare to find that. He is definitely the best agent out there!"
-Sattie E., 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
"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
"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 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!"
-mhewitt530, Client
"Spirit really knows Tucson. We were first time out-of-town buyers. He was able to boil down the overall market picture and assist us with understanding the dynamics of the neighborhoods of interest. He was able to help us negotiate around other cash buyers in an extremely tight market. Thanks to Spirit we got the house. I have never met someone this enthusiastic, insightful and genuinely helpful in my house buying experiences. I HIGHLY recommend this fellow. His first name is no misnomer!"
-twitt5, Client
"Spirit is an amazing real estate professional! He exceeded our expectations every step of the way! Spirit provided incomparable customer service, and a wealth of knowledge and experience! I feel like I may be ruined for working with real estate agents in the future, because Spirit set the bar extremely high! He always gave us his honest opinion and feedback regarding questions we had about properties or process. Spirit always made sure to reassure us that he was going to help us and guide us, but that the decision to buy a house is ours, and he didn't want us to feel pressured in any way. Spirit clearly operates on sound ethical principles, and we always felt that he had our best interests in mind. We pressed "pause" in our home buying journey for our own personal reasons, and Spirit was gracious and magnanimous regarding this decision, as well. We will buy a house in the near future, and Spirit will be our agent for the purchase!"
-d rob ward, 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 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
"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
"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
"Working with Spirit was a great experience. Great customer service, responsive, and takes the time to talk with you about options. He won't try and push you or force you into a decision but will educate and inform you. I wish we had chosen him as our first realtor when buying our first house. We were looking to sell our home and upgrade to a bigger one in a better location. Spirit was very informative every step of the way and very realistic about our situation (buyer's contingency, current real estate market, etc.). He helped us maneuver through the selling process and used his expertise to help us manage a smooth buying process as well. He managed to make the home buying process easy in this market and we couldn't be happier in our new home. I highly recommend working with Spirit if you are looking for someone with local knowledge as well as the ins and outs of the buying and selling process."
-norisadalberto, Client
"Spirit is who you want as your realtor. He is beyond knowledgable of all things real estate from market trends; buying and selling best practices; to laws and regulations. I cannot emphasize enough the level of integrity Spirit brings to his work.
He has been exceptionally generous with his time and knowledge, helping me through each step of the process as a first time home sale. He made me feel like I was his only client: caring, responsive, and proactive.
Spirit’s network of professionals further made what can be a stressful and complex process feel smooth and efficient. And, he sold my house in two days!
Spirit brings the ideal balance of integrity, competitive nature, strong work ethic, and genuine care and compassion to his work. He is a pleasure to work with and be around, and his success speaks for itself."
-Jennifer W., 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
