Common situations in Maricopa County
How each one works locally — and why a cash sale can help. General information, not legal advice.
Probate and inherited houses
For a Peoria house on the Maricopa County side, the estate is opened in that county's Superior Court; a house in the Yavapai County part of Peoria goes through the Yavapai County Superior Court instead.

A Peoria foreclosure is usually a trustee's sale: the notice is recorded with the recorder of whichever county the house is in, and the auction follows unless the loan is brought current or the house is sold. You own the house until the sale, so you can usually still sell.
More on behind on the mortgage →Behind on property taxes
Peoria houses in Maricopa County pay taxes to the Maricopa County Treasurer, while those to the north pay the Yavapai County Treasurer; either office can sell a lien on unpaid taxes.
More on behind on property taxes →Code violations and city orders
The City of Peoria's code compliance staff respond to complaints about neglected yards, junk and unsafe or vacant buildings.

Peoria evictions go to the justice court precinct for the address — a Maricopa County Justice Court for most of the city, a Yavapai County justice court in the north. You can sell with tenants in place — paying, behind, or mid-eviction.

Selling for cash in Peoria: questions
How do I know whether my Peoria house is in Maricopa or Yavapai County?
Check your property tax bill or the county assessor's parcel search. It decides which court, treasurer and recorder you deal with, and a title company will confirm it before closing.
How fast can I sell my house for cash in Peoria?
Arizona sales close through an escrow and title company, which pays off the loan, the county taxes and any liens before you're paid. Once you accept an offer, most Maricopa County cash sales close in one to three weeks — sooner if there's no estate or lien paperwork to clear, or later on a date you choose.
