Arizona Real Estate ​Customs

Title companies and title agents both handle closings.
Conveyance is by warranty deed. Whereas deeds of trust are the security instruments most often used, mortgages and “agreements for sale” are used approximately 20% of the time.
Arizonans use ALTA owner’s and lender’s policies, standard or extended, with standard endorsements. The seller customarily pays for the owner’s policy, and the buyer pays for the lender’s policy. Buyer and Seller split other escrow costs.
There are no documentary, transfer, or mortgage taxes. Arizona is a community-property state.
