Maricopa County, Arizona

The fourth-largest US county,
with no rent caps to model around.

Maricopa County is the fourth most populous county in the United States with a population exceeding 4.5 million, and it contains the entire Phoenix metro. Population growth has run well above national averages for over a decade, driven by domestic in-migration from California and other higher-cost states, semiconductor and technology employer expansion, and a structurally lower cost of living. The result is one of the deepest and most active multifamily markets in the Sun Belt.

The regulatory framework is just as important as the demographics. ARS § 33-1329 preempts every city and county in Arizona from enacting rent control or rent stabilization. There is no California-style AB 1482 cap to model around, no local rent ordinance in any Maricopa city, and a special-detainer eviction process that typically resolves in three to four weeks on a clean non-payment case. For a multifamily owner, that combination - growing tenant base, no rent cap, fast eviction track - is the structural advantage Maricopa offers over coastal-California operating environments.

NextGen's operational anchor is in Phoenix. We developed and operate Canyon Townhomes (57 units) in the Alhambra neighborhood and Elevation Townhomes (48 units) - 105 Class-A units total. We also provide third-party multifamily property management for owners across the Phoenix metro and Scottsdale.

Maricopa County FAQs

What apartment owners ask
before they hand off Maricopa.

NextGen manages multifamily properties in Phoenix and Scottsdale. Phoenix is our operational anchor - we developed and operate Canyon Townhomes (57 units) in the Alhambra neighborhood and Elevation Townhomes (48 units), 105 Class-A units total. Across both cities we also provide third-party multifamily property management for owners of multifamily properties throughout the metro.

No. ARS § 33-1329 preempts every Arizona city and county from enacting rent control or rent stabilization. Maricopa County, Phoenix, Scottsdale, Mesa, Chandler, Gilbert, Tempe, Glendale - none can cap rent increases. Owners set market rents freely, subject only to lease terms and standard ARLTA notice requirements.

Maricopa County is the fourth most populous county in the United States, with population over 4.5 million, and contains the entire Phoenix metro. The Phoenix MSA has been one of the fastest-growing metros in the country for over a decade. Combined scale plus a no-rent-control regulatory framework makes Maricopa one of the most active multifamily acquisition and operating markets in the Sun Belt.

Same regulatory framework - ARLTA, no rent control, special-detainer eviction in three to four weeks. Different rent profile and tenant mix. Phoenix is a deep, citywide market with workforce, professional, and Class-A inventory across multiple submarkets. Scottsdale is materially more affluent, with rents that materially exceed Phoenix proper, an Old Town/North Scottsdale luxury submarket, and stricter HOA governance on a higher proportion of inventory. NextGen’s owned footprint is in Phoenix; Scottsdale is third-party only.

Yes. We administer HAP contracts, annual HQS inspections, and rent-reasonableness comparables for participating multifamily properties. The voucher administrator covering Phoenix is the City of Phoenix Housing Department in coordination with Maricopa County HOM Inc. Voucher participation in Arizona is at owner discretion - there is no statewide source-of-income mandate.

No. NextGen Properties focuses exclusively on multifamily rental properties. Maricopa is an inland market - our coastal-SFR sister brand NextGen Coastal serves California coastal owners only and does not operate in Arizona. Maricopa owners with single-family rentals should engage an SFR-focused operator.

Multifamily property management fees in the Phoenix metro typically run 5% to 8% of monthly collected rent for stabilized multifamily, with a separate leasing fee per turn. Smaller buildings price closer to the top of that range; larger stabilized assets price closer to the bottom. NextGen quotes per asset based on unit count, current rent roll, and operational scope - no hidden vendor markups.
