Showing ordinances that apply to Drexel Heights, AZ
Drexel Heights is an unincorporated community (population 27,523) in Pima County, Arizona. Because Drexel Heights is not an incorporated city, it does not have its own municipal code. Instead, Pima County ordinances apply directly to properties here. The rental registration rules below are the ones that govern your area.
Pima County does not require landlords to register rental properties with the county. Arizona law does not mandate a statewide rental registration program. Landlords must comply with the Arizona Residential Landlord and Tenant Act and file rental income on state and federal taxes, but no county-level rental license or registration fee applies.
Unincorporated Pima County does not maintain a rental registration or rental licensing program. There is no requirement to register a rental property, obtain a rental permit, or pay a rental registration fee to the county. Arizona does not have a statewide rental registration mandate. Landlords must comply with the Arizona Residential Landlord and Tenant Act (ARS 33-1301 et seq.), which requires landlords to provide tenants with their name and address for service of process and to maintain properties in habitable condition. Landlords must also provide tenants with a signed copy of the lease, a move-in condition checklist, and information about the Arizona Residential Landlord and Tenant Act. Arizona requires landlords to collect and remit transaction privilege tax (TPT) on rental income -- residential rentals are subject to state TPT (currently 0.5 percent for residential) plus any applicable county and municipal taxes. The Arizona Department of Revenue administers TPT. Some incorporated cities within Pima County (like Tucson) may have separate business licensing requirements for landlords, but unincorporated county areas do not.
Since no registration is required, there are no penalties for failure to register. Failure to provide tenants with required disclosures under the Landlord and Tenant Act may result in tenant claims and lease voidability. Failure to collect and remit TPT on rental income results in penalties from the Arizona Department of Revenue.
