Rising rents lead to spike in evictions in Arizona's Maricopa County
Since March 2023, Maricopa County, Arizona, has led the nation in eviction filings, with one Phoenix judge hearing as many as 500 eviction cases a month. It's part of an affordable housing crisis attributed to rising rents. Kris Van Cleave explains.

Unfortunately, it’s not just CA, folks have been moving and retiring to Phoenix for decades. The difference is…the pandemic speed things up. Phoenix is the 5th largest city in the country. That wasn’t the case 10 years ago. That tells you how many people are moving to that metro area. My fiancé grew up in Glendale in the 1980s and 1990s and every time we go back to visit family every few years (he left in 2005), he’s shocked by the amount of growth especially in his hometown and in parts of West Metro Phoenix closer to Sky Harbor Airport. Also, they are constantly building houses out there like Las Vegas. Every time you visit Vegas and drive around, new vacant homes are being built. If you would have told me Phoenix would be the 5th largest city in the country and Las Vegas’ metro area would reach 2million by 2020, I would have laughed in your face. These are two dessert cities that were more laid out for retirees. That’s not the case anymore 😮

No one is addressing that the landlord tenant act in Arizona is biased toward the landlord. That is the state legislators' doing. There is no compassion. Every eviction stays on your record for up to 10 years. That's by design. When Chris Van Cleve said "everyone is one financial catastrophe from losing a place to live", he's right.

Thank your politicians for the rent increases after a 2 year moratorium on rent. Landlords will recover the lost revenue and damage to their rentals. I lost $4,400 in rent and $10,000 in damages, so once the freeloaders were gone and repairs were made, the rent went from $1,200 to $2,000. Blame the politicians and freeloaders, not the landlords!

I had friends in Maricopa who had their rents increase 75 plus percent in 2022
Phoenix and Las Vegas does not have a housing problem. They have a greed problem. My fiancé and I visit both cities several times a year from L.A. We constantly see new builds all the time in the city limits of Las Vegas and the Phoenix suburbs. My fiancé grew up in Northwest of Phoenix in the 1980s and 1990s and that city used to just retirees and family. Now, you have young people and the booming job market out there, so everyone is moving to Phoenix. This is why it is now the 5th largest city in the country. This is why rents and housing prices are going up in Phoenix and also Vegas’ 2million population metro area, more people are opting to rent than purchase and the pandemic era protections for renters (similar to what the judge mentioned in the story) is now catching up with eviction notices. 😢

Everywhere has a housing crisis in America! Greedy plain and simple.
I make $76,000 a year and cant afford a 1 bedroom apartment where i live in florida.
Multimillion dollar homes everywhere. At the same time lack of affordable homes.

There is an answer in unity. Not in cowardice. Submission is not the answer.

So, when the landlords are owed $1000s in back rent & still have to make mortgage payments along with taxes, insurance & repairs, that is greed?
Lots of people going homeless, and it's just picking up. Sad
How has the tax reform act of 2017 affected corporate real estate investment? How has RealPage, Inc. contributed to rental inflation?
Everywhere rent is too high. Market price scam . Yes we are being scammed for money with your city's plan.
Phx is not worth the price
This is what systemic violence looks like, ffs.
Just praying for everyone rn. I know it's hard but I promise you will get thru. Sending love and light. 🙏🏾✨💓
America: The land of the GREEDY! To the newsperson interviewing, please don't ever ask such a question "how are feeling today?" Just ask yourself how you would feel if you got evicted and had nowhere to go!
Nothing but greed ..
Shameful No Rent Cap here in AZ!

My rent has more than tripled sonce 2019. This isnt sustainable. If im having concerns over monthly expenses then how is the average person going to handle this? I make a lot lot more than most and have no kids or wife to worry about and still im seeing a worrying trajectory.

I own a rental in Phoenix, my homeowner's insurance was $480 last year, this year it increased to $1,250, I have never filed a claim, insurance, property taxes and HOA dues keep increasing which is causing rents to increase

In my old complex they dropped the rent price after evicting people. Desperate to recoup money i suppose but the apartments have been vacant for weeks to over a month. My old apartment almost 2 now.

greedy, 1300 is not a bad price that is what rents are going for around here, my brother lived in a closet (in a apartment complex) sink for a kitchen a refrigerator and no bedroom for 500 dollars in a pretty nice area. he finaly bought a house, a couple of years ago, nice house with a fenced in yard for his dogs. he had a modest income too.
Constable must be so proud and sleep well at night. Shameful Im sure there are also pets that need placement too. Awful
It's crazy but I knew this was going to happen after the pandemic.... It just made sense because on the news I kept on hearing that there was a rent moratorium. It's like a pendulum. It was bound to swing the other way.
When are people going to stand up and do something about this? This is not ok. Millions of people are going to be homeless, do you not realize how problematic that can be? This is an unforgivable godless nation. And nothing anyone says matters, it’s so disgusting. I am so ashamed of America
My homeboy just got a house man he said the mortgage is going to be around $2,700 a month I was like damn mine $1,400 we live in Houston bro

Cross the border and come back without any documents and say you are from Venezuela. You will get everything
Grandparents who went through the depression always said, if YOU cannot pay for anything else, PAY for your rent! Do any jobs you have to, even clean toilets but PAY your rent and save two months of rent money for emergency. Sorry for those who were actually trying to pay their rent but lost their jobs and could not find another one. But, a few of the eviction cases shown were people who thought they did not have to pay the landlord forever. Along with high rents or landlords now want to receive rent (as many have not been paid rent since 2019) many people who own homes are losing their properties due to HIGH Property taxes. Property Taxes, HOA Fees, Condo Fees, Overpriced homes, are making hard working taxpayers lose their only property (Home, Condo). How can it be legal to suddenly raise Condo fees by 40%. How can it be legal to raise HOA Fees by 50%. How can these crooked tax assessors be allowed to overvalue someone property by hundreds of thousands of dollars, when they are not investors and those homes are their only child hood homes. Many areas are becoming like Detroit and Mississippi - desolate and empty as the working class is continuously fleeced in these manners. The vile tax assessors are getting multi-year promotions using Tax Payer dollars because these tax assessors ARE Overvaluing people's properties to bring in money to the municipalities. They don't care that people end up homeless (many veterans and elderly) or their home comes into foreclosure because they had to borrow against equity and credit cards to try and pay their property taxes or HOA or Condo fees. Where are the State representatives to put a stop to this madness??!!
What about the rent hikes scam by that website and the apartment companies??
I live here in Tempe been in my apartment unit for 5 years now. It's utilities included full washer and dryer. I tried looking at other places it's twice the price from what I'm paying now. They want me to pay close to 3000 for a little apartment with no balcony and no washer and dryer sounds like I'll be staying in my unit for another 5 years lol with my ac at 60 degrees with the same rent every month.
Wake up people landlords do not have to raise rent.They do it because they can they do it because they see others raising rent and making more money.
That police officer is going to be made homeless at some point too!
26 Constables, that’s a whole lot of evictions…Hoping for better for those unfortunate.
All so real estate investors can make their profits

This is when regulation is weak or nonexistent, corporations take advantage of the working class, vote republican if you want it to get worse.
It's time for government to step up to the plate and put rent controls in place. This has gotten out of hand. How many homeless people is acceptable in the world's richest country? How many Americans are living paycheck to paycheck, sleeping on the floor at a friend's house, or in an RV or car somewhere? We need to build public housing that people can lease to own and start recreating a middle class society.
