Residential Lease Addenda - Mold Disclosure - Arizona
MOLD AND MOISTURE DISCLOSURE AND RESPONSE ADDENDUM
This Addendum is part of the Residential Lease dated [__/__/____] for [PREMISES ADDRESS, UNIT, CITY, AZ ZIP]. It is made on [__/__/____] between [LANDLORD LEGAL NAME] (Landlord) and [TENANT NAME(S)] (Tenant).
1. Known conditions at signing
Landlord discloses the following information known as of [__/__/____] (select and complete):
☐ No water intrusion, persistent moisture, or visible mold is known in the Premises.
☐ The following condition is known: [LOCATION, DATE OBSERVED, DESCRIPTION].
☐ Prior inspection, repair, or treatment is documented in Exhibit A: [PROVIDER / DATE / RESULT].
These entries are factual disclosures, not a guarantee about hidden conditions. Tenant's observations before signing: [DETAILS / NONE REPORTED]. An unresolved condition materially affecting health or safety should be evaluated and addressed before occupancy.
2. Reporting and response
Tenant shall report observed leaks, persistent moisture, or visible mold promptly to [LANDLORD NOTICE ADDRESS / EMAIL], describing the location and date observed. Tenant will take reasonable steps to avoid additional water damage within Tenant's control and will cooperate with lawful inspection and repair access.
Landlord shall assess the report, arrange appropriate inspection or repair, and keep the Premises fit and habitable as A.R.S. § 33-1324 requires. Landlord remains responsible for supplied plumbing, ventilation, and other covered facilities under that section. The parties will record the response without treating an untested suspicion or a provider's opinion as a conclusive legal finding.
Report received: [__/__/____]. Inspection date/provider: [________________]. Findings: [________________]. Moisture source and repair plan: [________________]. Work completion and follow-up: [________________]. Attach reports or work orders as Exhibit B.
For ordinary entry, Landlord gives at least two days' notice and enters at reasonable times, except in an emergency or when notice is impracticable. A Tenant maintenance request permits entry only to act on that request and waives a separate access notice for that work under A.R.S. § 33-1343(B)-(D). Any temporary access, cleaning, or alternative-occupancy arrangement shall be agreed in writing where practicable and must comply with the Lease and applicable law.
3. Costs and rights
Landlord's duties under § 33-1324 remain in effect. A claim that Tenant caused particular damage or owes a particular documented cost must be resolved on the facts and applicable law; this Addendum does not make a contractor's causation opinion final, automatically charge a treatment cost as rent, or impose a fixed reimbursement period.
Nothing here waives Chapter 10 rights or remedies, limits Landlord's liability arising under law, requires Tenant to indemnify Landlord for that liability, or guarantees any fee, damages, rent reduction, or termination outcome. Disputes may be brought in a court with jurisdiction and proper venue. Arizona law governs; arbitration is not required and no right to jury trial is waived.
Any amendment must be signed by both parties. If a provision conflicts with a nonwaivable legal duty, that duty controls.

- A.R.S. § 33-1315(A)(1), (3) (prohibited waiver and landlord-liability limitation or indemnity)

Real estate documents transfer ownership, define who can use a property, and record agreements between buyers, sellers, landlords, and tenants. Deeds, purchase agreements, leases, and easements have to be drafted to meet state recording requirements, and mistakes show up at closing or years later in title disputes. Good real estate paperwork moves transactions forward quickly and avoids the kind of problems that only surface when it is time to sell or refinance.
