AZ SB1038

Changes the notice period for unpaid rent from five days to fifteen days in multiple sections (33-1314, 33-1368, 33-1370, and 33-1476), giving tenants more time to pay before eviction proceedings can begin.

Modifies the definition of "abandonment" to require rent to be unpaid for fifteen days (instead of five or ten days) before a unit can be considered abandoned based on the tenant's absence.

Updates language in section 33-1314 regarding authorized persons retrieving tenant property after death to apply only if rent is unpaid for at least fifteen days rather than five days.

Makes minor grammatical corrections and updates throughout the statute, including changing "upon" to "on," "which" to "that," and standardizing references to time periods (e.g., "month to month" to "month-to-month").

Applies these rent payment deadline extensions to both standard residential tenancies and mobile home park tenancies covered under Arizona Revised Statutes Title 33.
