City of Maricopa (Pinal County) rental management · plans from $75/mo
Who manages rentals in Maricopa, AZ?
Property Plus USA manages single-family rental homes in the City of Maricopa, the Pinal County city on SR-347 south of Chandler. The city shares its name with Maricopa County, but it is not in Maricopa County: it sits in Pinal County, so rental registration and property tax for a Maricopa home go through Pinal County offices.
Our Designated Broker is Kirsten Shafer (Arizona broker license BR535992000), and our team manages hundreds of homes across the Phoenix metro and Pinal County.

Maricopa rental snapshot
Updated October 2026. Public figures, with sources and dates. For your home we price from current comparable rentals.
- Population: 78,362 on July 1, 2025, up from an April 2020 base of 58,140, an increase of about 35% (U.S. Census Bureau QuickFacts, Vintage 2025 estimates).
- Housing mix: the city’s 2025 Housing Needs Assessment Update (Elliott D. Pollack & Company, January 2025) counted about 22,900 single-family homes, roughly 95% of the housing stock, and found renters in 15.2% of occupied homes (2023 American Community Survey).
- Ownership and rent: 83.6% of homes are owner-occupied and the median gross rent is $1,998 (Census American Community Survey 2020 to 2024 five-year estimates). It is a five-year figure across all rentals, not a current asking rent.
- Commute: SR-347 (John Wayne Parkway) is the main route north to I-10 and Chandler, and the average commute is 36.6 minutes (ACS 2020 to 2024). ADOT is designing a widening to add a lane each way between Maricopa and I-10 and expects construction to start by the end of 2026 (ADOT SR 347 project page).
- Growth: the City of Maricopa reported in February 2025 that it has secured more than 680 acres for its Industrial Triangle project. The first proposal there, the rail-served Maricopa Business Park, had no named occupants yet when AZBEX reported it in May 2025.
- Employers: the city’s housing study lists Maricopa Unified School District, the City of Maricopa, Walmart and Central Arizona College among major local employers.
- Utilities: the city lists Global Water for water, Electrical District No. 3 for electricity, Southwest Gas for natural gas, and Waste Management or Waste Connections of Arizona for trash, depending on the area.
Local rules Maricopa owners should know
A short summary of the rules that come up most often with Maricopa rentals. This isn’t legal advice; our Arizona landlord-tenant law guide covers more.
- Register with the Pinal County Assessor. A.R.S. 33-1902 requires rental owners to file their contact details and the property’s address, parcel number and year built with the county assessor, using Pinal County’s Notification of Arizona Residential Rental Property form. The fee is capped at $10, changes must be filed within 10 days, and owners who live outside Arizona must also record an Arizona statutory agent. The Assessor’s Office (520-866-6361) can confirm your filing.
- No rental tax on long-term leases. Since January 1, 2025, Arizona cities and towns can no longer levy transaction privilege tax (TPT) on residential rentals (A.R.S. 42-6004), and licenses that covered only residential rental were canceled automatically. Short-term rentals still owe lodging taxes.
- Security deposits are capped at one and one-half months’ rent (A.R.S. 33-1321). See our security deposit guide.
- HOA rental paperwork is limited by A.R.S. 33-1806.01 to tenant names and contact information, lease dates and vehicle details, with a fee of up to $25 per new tenancy.
- Short-term rentals. A.R.S. 9-500.39 bars cities from banning short-term rentals but lets them require a local permit (fee capped at $250), a 24-hour emergency contact and notice to neighbors. Owners also need a state TPT license and $500,000 in liability coverage or a booking platform that provides it. Check with the City of Maricopa for any local permit before listing, and read your HOA’s CC&Rs.
Maricopa neighborhoods and communities
Most Maricopa rentals sit in master-planned subdivisions with HOAs, and HOA rules on parking, landscaping and trash cans apply to tenants too. We give tenants the rules at move-in and handle HOA notices.
- Rancho El Dorado: one of the city’s larger master-planned areas, with several HOA villages.
- Province at Rancho El Dorado: an age-restricted, active-adult community. Tenants must meet the community’s age requirement, and Arizona law lets an age-restricted HOA ask for photo ID to confirm it.
- Tortosa, Santa Rosa Springs, Sorrento and Anderson Farms: newer subdivisions named as active home-building areas in the city’s 2025 housing study, along with Rancho Mirage Estates.
- Glennwilde, Homestead and Senita: other established Maricopa subdivisions, each with its own HOA rules.
