CHAPTER 4 CONVEYANCES AND DEEDS
ARTICLE 1. FORMAL REQUIREMENTS AND MODEL FORMS

33-405. Beneficiary deeds; recording; definitions

A. A deed that conveys an interest in real property, including any debt secured by a lien on real property, to a grantee beneficiary designated by the owner and that expressly states that the deed is effective on the death of the owner transfers the interest to the designated grantee beneficiary effective on the death of the owner subject to all conveyances, assignments, contracts, mortgages, deeds of trust, liens, security pledges and other encumbrances made by the owner or to which the owner was subject during the owner’s lifetime.

B. A beneficiary deed may designate multiple grantees who take title as joint tenants with right of survivorship, tenants in common, a husband and wife as community property or as community property with right of survivorship, or any other tenancy that is valid under the laws of this state.

C. A beneficiary deed may designate a successor grantee beneficiary. If the beneficiary deed designates a successor grantee beneficiary, the deed shall state the condition on which the interest of the successor grantee beneficiary would vest.

D. If real property is owned as joint tenants with the right of survivorship or as community property with the right of survivorship, a deed that conveys an interest in the real property to a grantee beneficiary designated by all of the then surviving owners and that expressly states that the deed is effective on the death of the last surviving owner transfers the interest to the designated grantee beneficiary effective on the death of the last surviving owner. If a beneficiary deed is executed by fewer than all of the owners of real property owned as joint tenants with right of survivorship or community property with right of survivorship, the beneficiary deed is valid if the last surviving owner is one of the persons who executes the beneficiary deed. If the last surviving owner did not execute the beneficiary deed, the transfer shall lapse and the deed is void. An estate in joint tenancy with right of survivorship or community property with right of survivorship is not affected by the execution of a beneficiary deed that is executed by fewer than all of the owners of the real property, and the rights of a surviving joint tenant with right of survivorship or a surviving spouse in community property with right of survivorship shall prevail over a grantee beneficiary named in a beneficiary deed.

E. A beneficiary deed is valid only if the deed is executed and recorded as provided by law in the office of the county recorder of the county in which the property is located before the death of the owner or the last surviving owner. A beneficiary deed may be used to transfer an interest in real property to the trustee of a trust even if the trust is revocable.

F. A beneficiary deed may be revoked at any time by the owner or, if there is more than one owner, by any of the owners who executed the beneficiary deed. To be effective, the revocation must be executed and recorded as provided by law in the office of the county recorder of the county in which the real property is located before the death of the owner who executes the revocation. If the real property is owned as joint tenants with right of survivorship or community property with right of survivorship and if the revocation is not executed by all the owners, the revocation is not effective unless executed by the last surviving owner.

G. If an owner executes and records more than one beneficiary deed concerning the same real property, the last beneficiary deed that is recorded before the owner’s death is the effective beneficiary deed.

H. This section does not prohibit other methods of conveying property that are permitted by law and that have the effect of postponing enjoyment of an interest in real property until the death of the owner. This section does not invalidate any deed otherwise effective by law to convey title to the interests and estates provided in the deed that is not recorded until after the death of the owner.

I. The signature, consent or agreement of or notice to a grantee beneficiary of a beneficiary deed is not required for any purpose during the lifetime of the owner.

J. A beneficiary deed that is executed, acknowledged and recorded in accordance with this section is not revoked by the provisions of a will.

K. A beneficiary deed is sufficient if it complies with other applicable laws and if it is in substantially the following form:

Beneficiary Deed

I (we) _________________________ (owner) hereby convey to ___________________________ (grantee beneficiary) effective on my (our) death the following described real property:

(Legal description)

If a grantee beneficiary predeceases the owner, the conveyance to that grantee beneficiary shall either (choose one):

[] Become null and void.

[] Become part of the estate of the grantee beneficiary.

_________________________

(Signature of grantor(s))

(acknowledgment).

L. The instrument of revocation shall be sufficient if it complies with other applicable laws and is in substantially the following form:

Revocation of Beneficiary Deed

The undersigned hereby revokes the beneficiary deed recorded on ___________ (date), in docket or book ______________ at page ________, or instrument number ____________, records of ________________ county, Arizona.

Dated: _______________________

CHAPTER 6 MORTGAGES
ARTICLE 3. FORFEITURE AND REINSTATEMENT OF PURCHASER’S INTEREST
UNDER CONTRACT FOR CONVEYANCE OF REAL PROPERTY

33-742. Forfeiture of interest of purchaser in default under contract

A. If a purchaser is in default by failing to pay monies due under the contract, a seller may, after expiration of the applicable period stated in subsection D of this section and after serving the notice of election to forfeit stated in section 33-743, complete the forfeiture of the purchaser’s interest in the property in the manner provided by section 33-744 or 33-745. If the contract provides that the seller may elect to accelerate the principal balance due under the contract to the seller on the purchaser’s failure to pay the monies due, the seller may accelerate the principal balance due to the seller at any time after the purchaser has failed to pay the monies due under the contract. The acceleration may occur before or after the expiration of the applicable period stated in subsection D of this section and without serving the notice of election to forfeit stated in section 33-743. If the seller elects to accelerate the principal balance due to the seller, the seller may only foreclose the contract as a mortgage in the manner provided by section 33-748. If a purchaser is in default under the contract for reasons other than failing to pay monies due under the contract, the seller may only foreclose the contract as a mortgage in the manner provided by section 33-748.

B. The interest of a purchaser in any personal property included in a contract is subject to forfeiture or foreclosure in the same manner as the real property, except that forfeiture or foreclosure does not affect or impair the rights of a holder of a security interest whose interest in the personal property is not subordinate to that of the seller.

C. If a contract provides that time is of the essence, a waiver of that provision occurs only if the seller has accepted monies due under the contract in an amount which is less than the total monies due under the contract at the time of the acceptance. Receipt of any monies due under the contract by an account servicing agency does not constitute acceptance by the seller. A seller’s delay in exercising any remedy granted either by the contract or by law does not constitute a waiver of a time is of the essence provision. If the time of the essence provision has been waived, the seller may reinstate the provision by serving a written notice on the purchaser and the account servicing agent, if one has been appointed, requiring strict performance of the purchaser’s obligations to pay monies due under the contract. The notice shall be served, either by delivery in person or deposit in the United States mail, first class, postage prepaid, at least twenty days prior to the date on which the seller will require the purchaser to pay the monies due under the contract. A copy of the notice need not be recorded in the county in which the real property is located or served on any person other than the purchaser and the account servicing agent, if one has been appointed.

D. Forfeiture of the interest of a purchaser in the property for failure to pay monies due under the contract may be enforced only after expiration of the following periods after the date such monies were due:

1. If there has been paid less than twenty per cent of the purchase price, thirty days.

2. If there has been paid twenty per cent, or more, but less than thirty per cent of the purchase price, sixty days.

3. If there has been paid thirty per cent, or more, but less than fifty per cent of the purchase price, one hundred and twenty days.

4. If there has been paid fifty per cent, or more, of the purchase price, nine months.

E. For the purpose of computing the percentage of the purchase price paid under subsection D of this section, the total of only the following constitutes payments on the purchase price:

1. Down payments paid to the seller.

2. Principal payments paid to the seller on the contract.

3. Principal payments paid to other persons who hold liens or encumbrances on the property, the principal portion of which constitutes a portion of the purchase price, as stated under the contract.

A. If the seller elects to forfeit the purchaser’s interest in the property, the seller and the account servicing agent, if one has been appointed, shall record a notice of election to forfeit with the county recorder of the county in which the real property is located. A notice of election to forfeit is ineffective unless recorded after expiration of the applicable period prescribed in section 33-742, subsection D. A copy of the notice shall be served, either by delivery in person or by deposit in the United States mail, first class, postage prepaid, at least twenty days prior to the effective date of the forfeiture, on the purchaser and on persons who, at the time of recordation of the notice of election to forfeit, appear on the records of the county recorder of the county in which the real property is located as having an interest in or a lien or encumbrance on the property, the priority of which is subordinate to that of the seller, or who have requested a copy of such notice in the manner provided by section 33-746. If mailed, the notice shall be addressed to the last mailing address filed in writing with the seller or with the account servicing agent or as designated on the request for copy of notice of election to forfeit. If no address has been filed with the seller or the account servicing agent, a copy of the notice may be mailed in care of the person to whom any recorded document evidencing an interest in or a lien or encumbrance on the property was directed to be mailed at the time of its recording.

B. The notice of election to forfeit shall be substantially in the following form:

“Notice of Election to Forfeit

The undersigned hereby gives notice that the purchaser under that certain contract, by and between _______________, as seller, and _______________, as purchaser, dated _______________, 19____, and recorded (if recorded) on _______________, 19____, in docket __________, at page __________, records of _______________ county, Arizona, covering real property described as follows:

and including personal property described as follows:

The monies due under the contract which are required to be paid to reinstate such contract are as follows:

If the monies due under the contract are not received by five o’clock p.m. on the __________ day of _______________, 19____, being at least twenty days after the serving of this notice, at _______________, Arizona, the interest of the purchaser and all persons who have an interest in or a lien or encumbrance on the property, the priority of which is subordinate to that of the seller, shall be forfeited.

Dated _______________, 19____.

C. A person need not be served with a copy of the notice of election to forfeit unless the person, at the time of recordation of the notice, appeared on the records of the county recorder of the county in which the real property is located as having an interest in or a lien or encumbrance on the property, the priority of which is subordinate to that of the seller, or requested a copy of the notice in the manner provided for in section 33-746.

D. Failure to serve a copy of the notice of election to forfeit on each person as stated in subsection A of this section does not invalidate the service of the notice of election to forfeit as to persons served but extends the effective date of the forfeiture until at least twenty days after the persons not previously served have been served with a copy of the notice.

E. A purchaser who has failed to pay monies due under the contract or any other person may, at any time prior to expiration of the period provided for in the notice of election to forfeit, avoid the forfeiture by complying with the terms of the notice.

F. If the purchaser or any other person timely complies with the terms of the notice of election to forfeit, the seller or the account servicing agent shall record a notice of reinstatement with the county recorder of the county in which the real property is located. The notice of reinstatement shall be substantially in the following form:

“Notice of Reinstatement

The undersigned hereby gives notice that the notice of election to forfeit, dated _______________, 19____, pertaining to a contract which covers real property described as follows:

and including personal property described as follows:

which notice was recorded on _______________, 19____, in docket __________, at page __________, records of _______________ county, Arizona, is cancelled.

At any time after expiration of the period provided for in the notice of election to forfeit, the seller may complete the forfeiture of the interest of the purchaser and persons having an interest in or a lien or encumbrance on the property, the priority of which is subordinate to that of the seller, by filing an action in the superior court in the county in which the real property is located to declare that the interest of the persons has been forfeited and to quiet title to the property in the seller. In the action, the seller shall name as defendants the purchaser and each person who, at the expiration of the period provided for in the notice of election to forfeit, had an interest in or a lien or encumbrance on the property, the priority of which was subordinate to that of the seller.

CHAPTER 6 MORTGAGES
ARTICLE 3. FORFEITURE AND REINSTATEMENT OF PURCHASER’S INTEREST
UNDER CONTRACT FOR CONVEYANCE OF REAL PROPERTY

33-745. Completion of forfeiture by notice

A. If an account servicing agent has been appointed to hold documents and collect monies due under the contract and the agent has recorded and served the notice of election to forfeit, as provided in section 33-743, the seller and account servicing agent may complete the forfeiture of the interest of the purchaser and persons having an interest in or a lien or encumbrance on the property, the priority of which is subordinate to that of the seller, by recordation of an affidavit of completion of forfeiture with the county recorder of the county in which the real property is located. The county recorder shall index the affidavit of completion of forfeiture under the classification in which conveyances of real property are indexed.

B. Recordation of an affidavit of completion of forfeiture terminates without right of redemption all right, title and interest of the purchaser and all persons having an interest in or a lien or encumbrance on the property, the priority of which is subordinate to that of the seller, including the interest of any persons acquiring an interest in or a lien or encumbrance on the property subsequent to recordation of the notice of election to forfeit. On recordation of the affidavit, the property reverts to the seller clear of all interests, liens and encumbrances, the priority of which was subordinate to that the seller. The recordation of the affidavit of completion of forfeiture also raises the presumption of compliance with all requirements of this article and constitutes conclusive evidence of the meeting of the requirements in favor of purchasers or encumbrancers for value and without actual notice.

C. The affidavit of completion of forfeiture shall be substantially in the following form:

“Affidavit of Completion of Forfeiture

The undersigned, being duly sworn, deposes and says that the purchaser under that certain contract, by and between _______________, as seller, and _______________, as purchaser, dated _______________, 19____, and recorded (if recorded) on _______________, 19____, in docket __________, at page __________, records of _______________ county, Arizona, covering real property described as follows:

and including personal property described as follows:

failed to pay amounts due under the contract; that on the date the monies were due, any provision of the contract which made time of the essence had not been waived or had been reinstated in the manner provided for in Arizona Revised Statutes section 33-742, subsection C; that the applicable period stated in Arizona Revised Statutes section 33-742, subsection D had expired after the date the monies were due; that a notice of election to forfeit was recorded with the county recorder of the county in which the real property is located; that a copy of the notice was served upon the purchaser and all persons who, at the time of recordation of the notice of election to forfeit, appeared on the records of the county recorder of the county in which the real property was located, as having an interest in or a lien or encumbrance on the property, the priority of which was subordinate to that of the seller, or who had requested a copy of the notice in the manner provided for in Arizona Revised Statutes section 33-746; that the terms of the notice of election to forfeit were not complied with prior to expiration of the period provided for in the notice; and that all right, title and interest of the purchaser and all persons having an interest in or a lien or encumbrance on the property, the priority of which was subordinate to that of the seller, are by this affidavit declared to be forfeited and to revert to the seller in accordance with the terms of the contract and the laws of the state of Arizona.

Arizona Case Law

Arizona courts ruled that “although the law disfavors forfeitures, when it clearly appears from the terms of the contract that the parties have agreed to a contract that will result in forfeiture, the courts will enforce it.” Mohave County v. Mohave-Kingman Estates, Inc. 586 P.2d 978 (1978)

The Arizona court agreed that Ariz. Rev. Stat. 33-741 does not operate to extend a grace period to a defaulting purchaser in a cash real estate purchase contract. Brigham and Glickman v. First National Bank of Arizona, 629 P.2d 996
