Phil Lipman, Owner

Phil Lipman started his real estate career answering phones at Le Vaux Realty in Cambridge, MA for $5 an hour. One year later he was the top agent in a 10 agent office. Two years later he was #3 of 7000 agents at De Wolfe New England. He learned how to renovate old properties by converting "triple deckers" to condominiums in Cambridge and Somerville over a 12 year period. This led to an active and cutting edge loft and condo development career in the Boston area. 

In 1998 he moved back to Tucson (where he had gone to the University of Arizona) and in 2005 was a partner in the successful Ice House Lofts/Barrio Metalico loft project, which helped to trigger the revitalization of Downtown Tucson. Since relocating to Tucson, Lipman has renovated hundreds of old, neglected apartments as well as the Downtown Clifton Hotel. 

Bright Properties was founded in 2012 as a full service boutique brokerage and property management company and is now located at 1730 North Tucson Boulevard in the Historic Blenman Elm neighborhood. Our goal is to provide excellent service and advice and to treat our clients the way we would ourselves like to be treated, always putting our clients' interests first.
