Arizona laws that protect you

Arizona is a non-judicial foreclosure state, meaning most lenders foreclose through a trustee's sale under Arizona Revised Statutes Title 33. Two laws matter most:

  • ARS §33-808 — requires at least 90 days between a Notice of Trustee's Sale and the auction. That's your window to act.
  • ARS §33-814 — Arizona's anti-deficiency statute protects qualifying owner-occupied homeowners from being pursued for the difference after foreclosure or short sale.
