Tired Landlord in Arizona? How to Sell Your Rental Property Fast and Move On
Being a landlord looks great on paper — cash flow, tax benefits, long-term appreciation.
But if you’re reading this, there’s a good chance your rental has turned into more stress than reward.
Maybe you bought a rental years ago and now live out of state. Maybe your “starter home” turned into an accidental rental and tenants are wearing you down. Or maybe the property needs work and you’re tired of pouring money into it.
Let’s talk about how to exit cleanly, even if the home has a difficult tenant or major repairs.
Step 1: Decide if It’s Really Worth Keeping
Ask yourself:
-
Are you actually cash-flow positive after ALL expenses?
-
How much time, energy, and mental load does this property take each month?
-
If you sold, what else could you do with that equity?
If the property is draining your time and budget, it might be time to move on.
Your Options for Selling a Rental Property in Arizona
-
List the rental traditionally
-
Pros: Strongest sale price, especially if the home is updated and tenant is solid.
-
Cons: You’ll coordinate showings around the tenant, handle inspection repairs, and wait on buyer financing.
-
-
Wait until the lease ends, then sell vacant
-
Pros: Easier to show and to sell.
-
Cons: You keep dealing with the property — and any issues — until the end of the lease.
-
-
Sell quickly as-is to a cash buyer
-
Pros: No repairs, no showings, can often sell with the tenant in place.
-
Cons: Lower sale price, but often better net when you factor in time, vacancy risk, and reduced headaches.

What If the Tenant Is Behind or Difficult?
This is where a fast off-market sale can shine.
Some investors are willing to buy:
-
Properties with tenants behind on rent
-
Homes needing major repairs or full renovations
-
Properties with month-to-month or problem tenants
You avoid the eviction process and months of no rent, and transfer that headache to a buyer who’s built for it.
