Arizona Late Rent Notice

This Late Rent Notice is built with Arizona as the governing state. These are the Arizona landlord-tenant rules that most often bear on it, with the statute for each.

Arizona rules at a glance

Arizona rules for a Late Rent Notice
Late feesNo numeric cap; must be reasonable and in the written leaseA.R.S. §33-1368(B)
Nonpayment eviction notice5 days to payA.R.S. §33-1368(B)
Nonpayment of rentA written 5-day notice to pay; if rent isn’t paid, the landlord may file a special detainer action. The tenant can reinstate by paying all past-due rent and reasonable late fees — plus attorney’s fees and court costs once a case is filed (§33-1368(B)).
Lease violationsA material breach gets a 10-day notice to cure; a breach materially affecting health and safety gets 5 days. If the same or a similar breach recurs during the lease, the landlord can file a special detainer action 10 days after a written notice of the second breach, without another chance to cure (§33-1368(A)).

Rent, late fees & rent increases

  • Late fees — Arizona sets no dollar or percentage cap and no grace period. A late fee must be reasonable and set out in the written rental agreement to be collectible (§33-1368(B)).
  • Rent increases — There’s no rent-increase statute. Rent can’t change during a fixed term unless the lease allows it; for month-to-month, give at least the 30 days needed to end the tenancy (§33-1375(B)).
  • Rent control — The power to control rents on private residential property is preempted by the state, so no Arizona city can cap rent (§33-1329).
  • No rental sales tax — Since January 1, 2025, Arizona cities may no longer levy transaction privilege tax on long-term residential rent, and landlords must stop passing that tax through to tenants (Laws 2023, ch. 204 — SB 1131).

  • Lease violations — A material breach gets a 10-day notice to cure; a breach materially affecting health and safety gets 5 days. If the same or a similar breach recurs during the lease, the landlord can file a special detainer action 10 days after a written notice of the second breach, without another chance to cure (§33-1368(A)).
  • Material and irreparable breaches — Conduct such as illegal discharge of a weapon, drug manufacturing or dealing, threatening or assault, or serious property damage allows immediate termination (§33-1368(A)).
  • Domestic violence — A tenant who is a victim of domestic violence or sexual assault may end the lease with written notice and a protective order or police report, with a release date within 30 days and no early-termination fee; the incident generally must have occurred within the 30 days before the notice (§33-1318).
  • Holdover — A willful, bad-faith holdover lets the landlord recover up to the greater of two months’ rent or twice actual damages (§33-1375(C)).
