In Arizona, if a decedents estate is small enough, the law allows you to skip probate altogether and use a simplified process. This usually is reserved for smaller estates if the value is under $100,000 (for real estate) or under $75,000 (personal property).

There may be additional hearings to resolve contests, and the executor will probably need court approval before making major decisions and actions. Informal probate is obviously the quickest and can conclude in 4 – 6 months. Formal probate may take up to a year or longer.
In Arizona, probate is always required for wills and assets that aren't in a trust or included in a transfer-on-death deed. Probate is also required for large estates consisting of personal property valued at over $75,000 and real estate property valued at over $100,000.
If you believe your property has been erroneously valued or listed, you may appeal your valuation by April 21, 2025. Appeal documents are available on our website at . For assistance with the appeals process, please contact our Customer Service team at 520-724-8630.
If the Estate has been fully administered and it is ready to be closed, file the original Closing Statement ing to the instructions above. Then send a copy of your conformed Closing Statement along with a note requesting that the hearing be canceled to the Commissioner assigned to your case.
Although you aren't required to use a residential real estate attorney when buying, selling, or building a home, the law surrounding the process is complicated and it is often wise to at least consult with a lawyer to make sure you're informed about potential issues and roadblocks.
In Arizona probate can take basically as long as it needs. An executor doesn't really have a timeline. There's a recommended start date, which is 60 days after somebody passes away.
