Answer: All landlords are generally required to comply with applicable building codes and to “make all repairs and do whatever is necessary to put and keep the premises in a fit and habitable condition.” When the rented property is a single family dwelling, the landlord must also “maintain in good and safe working order and condition all electrical, plumbing, sanitary, heating, ventilating, air-conditioning and other facilities and appliances...” (A.R.S. 33-1324). When the rented property is a mobile home park lot space, the landlord must also “furnish outlets for electric, water and sewer services” (A.R.S. 33-1434).
