How are property taxes calculated in Maricopa County?
The Maricopa County Assessor sets your Full Cash Value and Limited Property Value (LPV), and residential property is taxed on 10% of the LPV as its assessed value. That assessed value, divided by 100 and multiplied by the combined tax rate for your county, city, school district, and any special districts, determines the bill the County Treasurer sends out each September. Look up a specific parcel's value and rate on the Maricopa County Assessor's site.

Who pays closing costs in Arizona, buyer or seller?
Both sides typically pay a share: buyers commonly pay around 2% to 5% of the purchase price, largely for loan and appraisal-related fees, while sellers' costs run higher once commissions and the owner's title policy are included. The exact split is set in the purchase contract and is negotiable, including any seller credits toward buyer costs.

How do I find out if a property has an HOA and get its rules?
Check your closing documents or deed for the community name, or ask the county recorder or title company. In Maricopa County, you can search the recorder's document-search tool by the HOA's business name and look for a document coded PROP RSTR or MOD RSTR to view the recorded CC&Rs.

How do I look up which school a property is zoned for?
Arizona district boundaries don't follow zip codes or city lines, so the reliable method is entering the exact property address into the district's own School Locator or boundary-map tool, then confirming with the Arizona Department of Education's AZ School Report Cards site. Attendance zones can shift by grade and school year, so verify directly with the district before relying on a listing.
