Landlord notice deadlines — Arizona
In Arizona, the checked deadlines on this page cover: pay or quit, ending a tenancy, raising the rent. Each figure carries its statute and the stamp Rules checked October 2026. Run your exact dates through the checker — the period is only half the answer; the counting rule is the other half.
| Pay or quit | 5 calendar days — the tenant may pay and cure (A.R.S. § 33-1368(B)). 5 calendar days to pay or quit. Payment in full within 5 days reinstates the rental agreement. |
|---|---|
| End a tenancy | 30 days — month-to-month (A.R.S. § 33-1375). 30 days' written notice, no reason required. 10 days — week-to-week (A.R.S. § 33-1375). 10 days' written notice. |
| Raise the rent | 30 days (A.R.S. § 33-1372). State law bars cities from capping rents (mobile-home lot rents have separate, narrower rules). 30 days' notice before the change takes effect. |
| How days are counted | Notice periods under § 33-1368 are calendar days (§ 33-1368(G)); weekends and holidays count. |
| Allowed service methods | personal delivery leaving with a person of suitable age at the residence certified or registered mail (A.R.S. § 33-1313) |
| Just cause | No statewide just-cause requirement. |

Local rules sit on top of state law in many places — city just-cause lists, rent boards, and prescribed local forms. A state deadline is the floor of the analysis, never a promise that no local rule adds to it.
The paper that goes with the date
The checker gives you the date. The kit gives you the notices: pay or quit, non-renewal / termination, and rent increase letters generated from these same checked deadlines, a letter builder that fills in your dates and names, the move-in and move-out inspection checklists, and the proof-of-service checklist.
One-time payment. No subscription. The checker stays free either way.
