Arizona Rental Application Form Template - Free Download

The Arizona Rental Application Template is a document that is useful to the owners of real estate properties or their agents in Arizona to verify the identity of a prospective tenant including their credit, rental, and employment histories. As a landlord, doing background check is always important if you are looking to reduce the chance of going through the tedious legal processes of issuing an eviction notice and getting a tenant evicted from your property.

A landlord may decide to charge a fee for the background check of a prospective tenant when the Application is issued. It is advisable that the property owner revert to the tenant within a reasonable time frame to avoid losing a good tenant who can’t wait for too long to get another property to rent.
