Except as provided in subsection F of this section, the landlord shall not terminate or refuse to renew a rental agreement without good cause.
In the state of AZ, by law, you need to have a TPT license if you are operating a short-term rental (home share, whole house, any type), and you need to file even though the platforms may be paying the tax to the state/county/city.
All owners of property engaging the service of a property management company (PMC) for short-term lodging or commercial rentals are required to obtain a TPT license. Owners of residential rental properties are not required to obtain a TPT license after January 1, 2025.
If you own a property/building that you are renting out, you will need to obtain the state transaction privilege tax (TPT) license from AZDOR.
Effective January 1, 2025, Arizona property owners will no longer be required to collect and remit city Transaction Privilege Tax (TPT) on residential rental income for long-term stays of 30 consecutive days or more. This change stems from the amendment to A.R.S.
If a business is selling a product or engaging in a service subject to TPT, that business will likely need a license from the Arizona Department of Revenue (ADOR) and a TPT, or business/occupational license, from the city or cities in which the business has a base or operation.
In order to be a landlord in Arizona, there are certain licenses and permits that you need to obtain. This includes a business license and a residential rental license from the City of Phoenix. These licenses are essential to ensure compliance with local regulations and to legally operate your rental property.
But the landlord can't just kick out the tenant, change the locks, or turn off the utilities. The landlord must follow all the steps the law says must be taken. And the tenant should not just stop paying the rent unless the tenant first follows all the steps the law says must be taken.
