Just cause eviction rules in Yavapai County, AZ — sometimes called tenant protection or "for cause" eviction ordinances — list the specific legal reasons a landlord can end a tenancy.
Unincorporated Yavapai County does not have a just-cause eviction ordinance, and Arizona has not enacted statewide just-cause protection. Evictions are governed by the Arizona Residential Landlord and Tenant Act at A.R.S. Title 33, Chapter 10 (Sections 33-1301 through 33-1381), which permits termination on specific statutory grounds: nonpayment of rent (5-day notice under A.R.S. Sec. 33-1368), material noncompliance with the lease or health/safety violations (10-day cure notice under A.R.S. Sec. 33-1368), material and irreparable breach such as illegal activity or property damage (immediate termination under A.R.S. Sec. 33-1368(A)), and end-of-term or month-to-month termination on 30 days' written notice under A.R.S. Sec. 33-1375. Self-help evictions — lockouts, utility shutoffs, or removal of belongings — are prohibited under A.R.S. Sec. 33-1367, and tenants may recover actual damages plus an amount equal to two months' rent. Local just-cause ordinances are not authorized by Arizona law.
