Arizona's capital and one of the largest cities in the Southwest, with a rental market that has grown considerably as the broader metro area has expanded.
Phoenix landlords are governed by Arizona state law; some cities also add local ordinances beyond the state baseline. The summary below is Arizona state law — a general starting point, not legal advice — and doesn't capture any Phoenix-specific ordinances. Verify current rules, including any local ordinances, with an attorney before relying on this for an actual tenancy.
