Unlike some Arizona municipalities that have adopted voluntary or mandatory rental registries, the county has no ordinance requiring landlords to register rental units or obtain rental licenses. Landlords must still comply with the Arizona Residential Landlord and Tenant Act (ARS 33-1301 et seq.), including providing tenants with the name and address of the property manager or owner's agent. All rental income is subject to Arizona Transaction Privilege Tax, and landlords must obtain a TPT license from the Arizona Department of Revenue.
