Arizona allows no-fault terminations of month-to-month tenancies with 30 days written notice under ARS Section 33-1375. Maricopa County does not impose just-cause restrictions, additional notice periods, or mandatory grounds for non-renewal.
Under ARS Section 33-1375, either party may terminate a month-to-month residential tenancy by giving written notice at least 30 days before the next periodic rent date. Fixed-term leases simply expire on their stated end date unless renewed. No business purpose, no fault, and no relocation payment must be shown. Maricopa County has not adopted just-cause protections, and Arizona case law (e.g., Arizona Multihousing Association advocacy) confirms landlords need not state any reason. Tenants who refuse to vacate face a special detainer action filed in justice court, with hearings typically within 6 to 8 days.
Landlords using self-help lockouts or utility shutoffs violate ARS 33-1367 and owe up to two months rent or twice actual damages plus attorney fees. Tenants holding over after lawful 30-day notice owe rent plus double damages.
