What Paperwork Do You Need to Sell a Home in Arizona?

Selling a home in Arizona involves a familiar set of documents: the listing agreement, the purchase contract once you accept an offer, the Seller's Property Disclosure Statement (SPDS), title and loan-payoff information, any HOA documents if you're in an association, and the closing documents you sign at the title company. The good news is that your agent and the title and escrow company assemble and file most of it — you're not doing this alone.

• Listing agreement — the contract between you and your agent.
• SPDS — Arizona's Seller's Property Disclosure Statement, where you disclose what you know about the home's condition.
• Purchase contract and addenda — the agreement with your buyer.
• Lead-based paint disclosure — required by federal law for homes built before 1978.
• HOA documents — the CC&Rs and association info, if your property has an HOA.
• Title and payoff — handled through escrow to clear and transfer ownership.

Certain rural or unincorporated parcels can also require an Affidavit of Disclosure — one more reason to have a local agent who knows the area.
