SB 1480 Arizona Senate · 57th Legislature - Second Regular Session

crime-free lease addendum; renters.

SB 1480 prohibits landlords from including in lease agreements any clause that would evict a tenant based on the criminal conviction of the tenant or a guest, specifically targeting "crime-free" lease addendums. This law directly affects landlords who use such addendums and tenants who might have faced eviction under these terms. The key provision makes any eviction clause related to criminal convictions in a "crime-free" lease addendum unenforceable. The bill does not change other eviction reasons but removes this specific practice from lease agreements.
