"This year’s numbers illustrate the significance of the Phoenix Education Conference and Trade Show to the AMA and the industry," he explains.

This article will address A.R.S. 33-1318. As a landlord, you should be prepared under certain circumstances to allow your renter to terminate the lease early. For residents to prematurely terminate their lease and have management release them from future obligations under the rental contract, they must comply with certain requirements. Renters must provide to the landlord a notice indicating that they have a valid lease scheduled to expire on a certain date. Individuals must declare under penalty of perjury that they are a victim of domestic violence and that the notice served is truthful and accu- rate. Residents can then request early termination on an effective date not longer than 30 days from the date of the notice. The law requires residents to provide evidence to the landlord by one of several methods: Provide a copy of a protective order issued in their favor and against the person allegedly engaging in the domestic violence. Provide proof that they have provided a copy of the order to an authorized officer of the court to serve on the perpetrator. Provide a copy of a written departmental report from a law enforcement agency that states the resident has notified them that they are a victim of domestic violence. Individuals must indicate that the action, events or circumstances that resulted in them becoming a victim of domestic violence occurred within the 30-day period immediately preceding the written notice to the landlord. The law deems the person named as the perpetrator of the domestic violence to have interfered with the residential rental agreement between the landlord and the resident, and this person may be civilly liable for all economic losses incurred by the landlord for the early-lease termination. This includes unpaid rent, early-lease termination fees and costs to repair damages to the premises. Renters must submit to management the rent owed through the date of the lease termination plus any previous outstanding obligations. A landlord can also withhold a security deposit CONTINUED ON PA continued on page 3E Professional Publishing, Inc PO Box 698 Portland, OR 97207-0698 Winning the developer’s award for best community design built 2005-2006 was San Palacio, a 352-unit property in Chandler.

From its lobbying efforts to its education programs, the association offers numerous benefits to its members. And we’ve expanded and improved some of our existing ones. IMPROVED ONLINE EVENT REGISTRATION Our new online event registration makes registering for AMA events and seminars a lot easier. Launched last month, the new events registration utilizes a "shopping-cart" feature that allows individuals to register for multiple classes in the same registration form. The form also allows for registering additional guests.

In additional to AMA-developed and –approved forms, members can also purchase Blue Moon software and corresponding National Apartment Association forms. The AMA is in the process of updating its forms and revamping the forms-delivery program. The form content is being developed by a task force composed of management company representatives and member attorneys. Prior to publication, the forms will be submitted to the Arizona Department of Real Estate and the courts for their review. Once the updating is complete, we will no longer offers hard copies of the forms for purchase; rather, the association will go completely electronic. It will continue to offer both the free downloadable, blank copies of the forms and an enhanced online delivery mechanism. Members will be able to purchase all the forms they need for an individ- ual lease transaction for $6 per set. The forms will be purchased with a credit card, completed online, and then a PDF file of the completed documents will be created to save on your computer and print. Additionally, the interactive subscription program is being enhanced. The program will store property information, which will automatically populate the document fields. Members can purchase an annual subscription for unlimited lease sets for $89 per property location. The new program will be accessible in the Forms page in the Member Area of www.azama.org.

Please send your comments and questions to Debbie Norton, Realtor, John Hall & Associates, at 602-995-7400 or dn012@yahoo.com In our perfect world, there is a lease in place and a renter who not only remembers what it says, but knows about the Arizona Residential Landlord and Ten- ant Act. It amazes me that when an issue arises, the resident typically runs off assumptions of what the rules and laws are, almost to the point of not recognizing our lease was actually created based on the law. When renters have money issues, the rental agreement seems to gray up their mind. In the event the individual is having a cash-flow problem, one of the first lines of a plan should include communicating to the landlord as soon as possible. Much aggravation and money could be saved by working together to resolve the issue. In my office, rent is due on the first day of the month and late on the second day of the month. If a resident knows rent will be late and he or she calls, we make arrangements for the individual to sign a five-day notice without a fee. Of course, this means we work it out without the use of a process server or certified mail. In our case, we have the form at one of our offices for them to walk in and sign or we fax it to them to sign. Once the five-day notice is signed, our team is ready to go forward should the resident defaults on the terms of our agreement. Depending on the situation, the lease and notice is faxed to an attorney to start the eviction process. This typically gives the resident another 10 days to come up with the rent and associated fees. I have even accepted rent and all associated fees once we have entered a judgment. Our ultimate goal is working with a good renter within the guidelines of the law to collect the rent. For our resident, paying rent and the extra fees is less expensive than moving and still having a judgment on his or her credit report until paid. If we had chosen to negotiate for rent to be paid on the seventh day of the month and had not followed through with the legal notices, and the individual failed to pay on the agreed date, our eviction process would be delayed, possibly by 15 days. It is essential to communicate life changes. Perhaps a family member needs to move in. Moving people not identified as occupants into the unit is definitely against our lease. We may need to run a criminal check on the new occu- pant. In the event it’s not a one-bedroom with three new occupants, we probably wouldn’t have an issue if it is communicated in advance. The problem arises in the event we find out when our attention is drawn to the lease violation. Whatever the issue, working towards a compromise with a positive attitude makes life so much easier. Even if the result is moving with a plan in place, the property might be able to be marketed sooner, expediting the re-leasing process and cutting the final bill owed by the resident for possibly breaking a lease.

JULY 2007 APARTMENT NEWS 7 G OV E R N M E N T A F FA I R S Results of the 2007 Arizona Legislative Session COURTNEY LEVINUS Government Affairs Consultant Numerous proposals introduced in the 2007 legislative session were of interest to the multi-housing industry. The AMA was the sponsor of two of these proposals. The following is an update of the legislation. SB1085 - Constable Ethics Committee. An unintended consequence occurred as a result of the recent justice of the peace court consolidation efforts in Maricopa County. The distance from the court to a property has increased, the greatest impact of which is in the West Valley. Currently constables and sheriffs may charge $16 for the first six miles and $2.40 for each additional mile traveled to deliver a writ. Because distances from the court to the property have more than doubled, there has been a significant increase in cost to the industry. The AMA identified SB 1085 as a vehicle bill the Legislature could amend to address member concerns regarding the mileage fees imposed to deliver writs and special detainers. The state House of Representatives amended the bill to require Maricopa County justice of the peace courts to assess mileage fees once the constable enters the precinct, as opposed to the mileage assessed from the actual courthouse. Gov. Janet Napolitano signed the bill on April 27. SB1227 - Domestic Violence Early Lease Termination. Senate President Tim Bee, R-Tucson, and Sen. Jim Waring, R-Phoenix, introduced legislation developed by the AMA and the Arizona Coalition Against Domestic Violence. Though the version introduced was not the agreed-upon bill, amendments to the bill addressed lingering concerns. Arizona is now one of many states that have addressed this controversial issue. Association members have gone above and beyond the call of duty to work with the Coalition to develop early-lease termination legislation that will allow victims of domestic violence get out of their lease early as long as they achieve a specific burden of proof. The governor signed the bill on April 18. SB125 - Landlord-Tenant Amendment. A strong supporter of the apartment industry, Sen. Barbara Leff, R-Paradise Valley sponsored the AMA’s proactive landlord-tenant legislation. As is always the case with bills amending the Arizona Residential Landlord and Tenant Act, this one is controver- sial, to say the least. When we open landlord-tenant law, there is always the assumption on the part of many legislators that we are attempting to take away renter rights. The bill as introduced contained several provisions— practices currently being imposed as a condition of the rental agreement, but not codified in state statutes. Provisions included requirements for purchasing rental insurance; allowing for earlylease termination fees; and requiring the renter to supply a contact name to handle personal possession should he or she die during the lease term. The bill also clarified existing provisions for both landlords and renters. The first Senate Commerce Committee hearing was controversial, with many Committee members raising concerns about several bill provisions. Following the hearing, the AMA decided to remove the more controversial parts of the bill and continue with five provisions felt to be the most important (though still controversial and opposed by the Morris Institute.) Following the April Government Affairs Committee meeting, the Committee recommended further amendments and removed the most controversial provision regarding the landlord requirement to keep the premises fit and habitable. The four remaining provisions include: (1) 33-1314.F. It allows a landlord to request a renter to name a person in his or her lease who is responsible for the renter’s personal possessions should the individual die or become disabled. (2) 33-1321. During the term of the tenancy, the landlord may use the refundable security deposit in accordance with any applicable property management agreement. (3) 33-1341. It requires a resident to notify a landlord of maintenance issues in need of repair. (4) 33-1343. It stipulates that once a resident notifies a landlord of a maintenance request, it constitutes the twoday notice to enter the unit only for repair or inspection of the maintenance request. The bill cleared the Senate with a vote of 22 "yes" and five "no" votes. The bill as amended above with the four provisions cleared the House 58-0. Gov. Napolitano signed the bill on May 24. The AMA thanks member who sent e-mails to their senators and representatives requesting support of the bill. HB2361 - Landlord Tenant Forcible Detainer Actions. This bill is a joint effort by the AMA and the Manufactured Housing Communities of Arizona (MHCA) to address concerns raised in a 2005 unscientific study conducted by the Morris Institute titled, Eviction in No Time. This bill has also had its fare share of controversy and amended at least 12 times since introduction. The AMA and MHCA decided to hold this bill and not move it forward this year due to the controversial nature and degree of complexity. It is virtually impossible for elected officials to understand such a controversial and complicated bill in the limited amount CONTINUEcontinued on page 9 PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR OF REFRIGERATORS, RANGES AND DISHWASHERS PHOENIX AND TUCSON 1010 East 62nd Street, Los Angeles, CA 90001-1598 P: 1-800-624-5269 • F: 1-800-624-5299 8 APARTMENT NEWS JULY 2007 EDUCATE YOURSELF AND EMPLOYEES WITH AMA TRAINING OPPORTUNITIES *Class numbers are located next to city in each description* CAMT (Certified Apartment Maintenance Technician) Property Management Math: Understanding Financials Maintenance expenses are the single largest controllable element in any operating budget.

REGISTER ONLINE AT WWW.AZAMA.ORG/EVENTS_EVENTS.ASP JULY 2007 APARTMENT NEWS 13 LEGAL Recent Changes to the Arizona Residential Landlord and Tenant Act Matt Koglmeier Attorney Gov. Janet Napolitano in May signed HB 1225, the AMA’s proactive legislation that addresses concerns in the Arizona Residential Landlord and Tenant Act (ARLTA). This article will examine these changes. 33-1314(F) DEATH AND PERSONAL PROPERTY What if a single-occupancy resident dies in his or her rental unit? What can you do regarding the personal property left behind? This new statute provides a little help. The landlord may now request—and the renter may provide—contact information of a person authorized by the resident to enter the dwelling unit and retrieve and store the renter’s property should he Denny Dobbins Attorney or she dies. (This request is not a requirement for either party.) If management cannot contact the authorized person at the address and phone number provided, or if the authorized person fails to respond to management’s request within 10 days, then the landlord must still abide by the provision of the abandonment statute, 33-1370, to dispose of the property. If the authorized person comes to retrieve the property, that individual must present to the landlord a valid government-issued identification confirming that person’s identity before he or she can retrieve the property. The next part of the new law is contradictory to the proceeding paragraph. Once management provides the author- ized person written contact, he or she has 20 days or the last day for which rent is paid, whichever is longer, to remove the property and return the keys during regular business hours. The landlord then has no further liability to the renter, his or her estate or heirs for loss, damage or stolen property. However, if the authorized person does not entirely remove the property, the landlord still must abide by the abandonment statute. Section F only applies if the periodic rent is unpaid and outstanding for at least five days. Therefore, Section F is really only helpful to the management if the authorized person actually removes all the property quickly and returns the keys. Remember, if the authorized person does not retrieve the personal property, the landlord cannot just discard the property. He or she must follow the Public Sale Statute in 33-1023, unless specifically provided for in a written agreement that states that the landlord may destroy or otherwise dispose of some or all of the property if the value of the property is so low that the cost of moving, storage and conducting a public sale exceeds the amount that would be realized for the sale. 33-1321(D) SECURITY DEPOSITS The changes here are minor. Unless the renter makes other arrangements in writing, the landlord shall mail the itemized list and any amount due, by first-class mail, to the renter’s last place of residence. The statute simply replaced "regular" mail with first-class mail. However, for documentation purposes, we recommend that if you send the itemization and amount due by first-class mail, make a copy of the first-class mail envelope with the date stamp that shows when and where you sent it. Otherwise, consider sending it via certified mail. It is always good to have proof, even though the statute only requires first-class mail. 33-1321 (G) SECURITY DEPOSITS CONTINUATION This new section addresses security deposits. During the tenancy, the landlord may use refundable security or other refundable deposits in accordance with the property management agreement. This statute modification mainly addressed and provided for compliance with certain Arizona Department of Real Estate rules. 33-1341(8) REPAIR REQUESTS This section more evenly distributes the burden regarding a request for repair. It also stops the games that some renters play when they deliver to the landlord a long list of allegations of needed repairs— even false ones—and demand that management makes those repairs within 10 days if they violate the lease or within five days if they are health- and safety-related. When the landlord attempts to make these repairs, however, the renters do not CONTIN continued from page 8, Results of time allowed to review the bill with them. AMA member attorney Mike Parham, the primary author of the legislation, stated that he felt the legislation did help him make some progress addressing AMA and MHCA concerns with the State Bar of Arizona, which is currently working on rules for forcible detainer actions. This will be an issue that we will continue to monitor at the State Bar as well as the Arizona Superior Court. (The State Bar recently released proposed rules for handling evictions. The AMA Government Affairs Committee will discuss this document at the next meeting on July 12. HB2252 - State Plumbing Code; Municipalities. The association has opposed the dysfunctional state plumbing code virtually since its inception in 1997. HB2252 will repeal the code and the Arizona Uniform Plumbing Code Commission, thereby permitting municipalities to adopt local plumbing codes. The governor signed this action on April 10. HB2406 - Contractor Retention. This bill, similar to ones proposed and defeated in previous years, in its introduced form attempted to eliminate contractor retention by reducing the amount a general contractor can retain from a subcontractor to five percent from 10 percent and requiring an interest-bearing account for each subcontractor. Many construction industry groups oppose this bill, and we are working in concert to amend the bill to address all concerns. Sen. Pam Gorman, R-Anthem and chairwoman of the Senate Finance and Insurance Committee, ultimately held the bill. We are working with the sub-contractors to develop consensus legislation and believe that we may have develJULY 2007 oped an agreement that will allow owners and generals to retain 10 percent until construction completion—which parties will need to define in each contract—and upon invoice by the subcontractor. If approved and signed by the governor, this compromise legislation will require owners and general contractors to adjust all contracts. HB2607 - Contractor Indemnity. The bill would change provisions in construction contracts and shift liability for construction defect entirely to the owner and general contractor. Like the aforementioned contractor retention proposal, we’ve seen this bill introduced at least every year for the past seven or eight years. This year’s version, however, did clear the House. The same parties opposed to HB2406 have successfully worked to defeat this bill, which also did not get a committee hearing in the Senate. SB1423 - Municipal Impact Fees. We have been working with many stakeholders, including municipalities, homebuilders, the National Association of Industrial and Office Properties and Valley Partnership, to develop consensus legislation to reform the existing ambiguous state statues that allow a municipality to impose development impact fees. The governor signed the legislation on April 24. SB1047 - Private Investigator Licensing. As drafted, this bill would have required a credit bureau, tenant background check companies and even property management firms conducting background checks on behalf of an owner to become licensed private investigators. We were able to work with the bill sponsor and the Arizona Department of Public Safety to amend the bill to our satisfaction. Gov. Napolitano signed this bill on April 18. SB1521 - Civil Actions; Sheriff’s Fees & Process Servers. This bill in its current form will allow private process servers to charge a fee of $3.60 per mile if no other fee is negotiated. The AMA feels that this bill will have significant impact on the expenses associated with evictions. The strike-everything amendment cleared the House Judiciary Committee, and we were able to defeat the proposed legislation on the floor of the House with a 40 "no" and 15 "yes" vote total. SB1544 - Municipalities; Construction Sales Tax. Introduced on behalf of the Homebuilder Association of Central Arizona, it requires that municipalities that charge an additional sales tax on construction contracting activities use these monies collected only for new development infrastructure improvements. The bill was defeated in the House. SB1359 - Municipal Utilities; Tenant Nonpayment. A number of municipalities have required the landlord to pay unpaid utility bills—which are the responsibility of the lessee—as a condition of providing new service or restoring service in the landlord’s name. This bill faced opposition in the House; the House Government Committee defeated the proposal. The Goldwater Institute is considering filing a lawsuit against one or more of the municipalities that hold the landlord responsible. The AMA contacted members of its Independent Rental Owners Council, a few of which experienced this. The association anticipates introduction of a similar version of SB1359 next year. During the summer months, AMA will meet municipalities to address this issue. SB1552 - Air Quality Program. The primary concern for AMA mem- continued on page 16 bers in this bill is the use of gasoline powered leaf blowers. The bill in its original and subsequent draft forms would have eliminated the use of leaf blowers on no burn days and penalized property owners if operators used the equipment in violation of the law. Just from the House and Senate Joint Conference committee, it will go to a vote in both the House and Senate. In the current form, the state will no longer cite the property owner for the violation; it will hold leaf-blower operator responsible. Properties in Maricopa County and Pima County can no longer allow landscapers or maintenance workers to operate gasoline leaf blowers on no-burn days, nor can it allow workers to blow debris into the public roadway. Operators will need to complete an Arizona Department of Environmental Quality-approved certification on or before December 2008 and recertify at least every three years.

You can use your own vendors and determine damages at that point. Legal Q&A Q: One of our residents says he’s disabled and needs a service animal. He doesn’t look disabled, and the service animal is a toy poodle. Our community does not allow pets. What can we do? A: Attorneys Andy Hull, Mike Parham and Scott Clark Editor’s note: Readers who have nonemergency, general landlord-tenant, fair housing questions can send them to Apartment News. While all cannot be answered in this monthly column, we will attempt to publish those questions that would be of interest to most readers. For specific or urgent advice, consult your legal advisors before making a decision. Q : UESTION We have two residents who vacated their apartment and turned in the keys. We determined that there were damages to the unit. The individuals now want access back into the apartment to have their own vendors make repairs. Do we have to let them in? continued from front page, Domestic only to pay for damages suffered beyond normal wear and tear. If there are multiple residents who are parties to the rental agreement being terminated, the tenancy for those individuals also terminates. The landlord may enter an agreement with them to sign a new lease, so long as they meet all current application requirements. The big problem for management is pursuing the perpetrator who caused the early termination. Most landlords are not going to want to incur the cost, expense and time to pursue a third party. However, it is important that management allow the renter who is a victim of domestic violence out of the lease agreement. Fair housing laws say it is unlawful to refuse to make a "reasonable accommodation" to enable a disabled resident an equal opportunity to live there. This means you need to make a reasonable exception to your rules when it will enable a disabled renter to reside there. A common request is an exception to pet restrictions for an assistive animal. If the disability and need for the animal is apparent, you must allow it if it won’t unreasonably disrupt your business. However, if it’s not apparent, you can ask the resident to provide medical evidence of the disability and of the nexus between the disability and the requested accommodation. Once a medical provider gives you a statement that the renter has a disability and how the accommodation will help, make no further inquiries. Although you may suspect the whole situation is bogus, you ordinarily need to accept the medical provider’s statement and allow the exception. AMA Andy M. Hull, 602-230-0088 Mike A. Parham, 602-265-6804 Scott M. Clark, 602-957-7877 EXAMPLE Consider the following example: Sue Nomie and Harry Cain rent a unit at the Ship Wreck Apartments. Manager Stormy Weather informs them she runs a quiet community. Harry Cain decides he needs greener pastures and starts seeing another resident, Summer Pain. A big argument breaks out between Sue Nomie and Harry Cain. The police arrest Harry Cain for domestic violence and Sue Nomie gets a restraining order from Judge Wendy Storm. Sue Nomie gives the proper notice, pays rent and moves. Harry Cain, who is now unemployed, tries to stay in the apartment, but Stormy Weather evicts him. AMA Andy M. Hull Attorney at Law 602-230-0088 www.azama.org CHECK US OUT make themselves available for service of a notice to access the premises. Now, renters will have a duty to notify the landlord of any situation or occurrence that requires management-provided maintenance or repairs or that would otherwise require the landlord to take action pursuant to Section 33-1324, which outlines management’s duties in keeping the premises in habitable condition. The following paragraph ties the resident’s duty to notify the landlord with the landlord’s right of entry: 33-1343(B) ACCESS BY LANDLORD If the Tenant notifies the Landlord of a service request or request for maintenance as set forth in section 33-1341 paragraph 8, the delivering of notice to the Landlord from the Tenant constitutes permission from the Tenant for the Landlord to enter the dwelling unit for the sole purpose of acting on that service or maintenance request. This means exactly what it says. Once a resident delivers to the landlord a notice of needed repairs, the landlord can then access the apartment or home after 48 hours of delivery of the notice to make the repair. Common courtesy would suggest that upon receiving the notice, the landlord simply contacts the resident and lets him or her know when management will be accessing the unit (although it is not a requirement).

However, to avoid any strange allegations or possible liabilities, it is best to access with at least two people if at all possible, especially if the renter is not home. Residents oftentimes do not make landlords aware of needed repairs that can cause greater damage to the property, which could have been resolved very easily had he or she notified the landlord at the time of the occurrence. This change in ARLTA puts the duty upon the resident to notify the landlord of repair issues. Once notified, the notification acts as if management gave the renter a 48-hour notice to inspect. However, if the resident delivers the landlord such a notice and it reasonably sets forth an emergency situation, then management may immediately enter and not have to wait the 48 hours.
