Is wholesaling legal in Arizona?

The short answer — Arizona

Yes — with two written disclosures. Before a binding agreement, a wholesale buyer must tell the seller in writing that it is a wholesale buyer; a wholesale seller must tell the buyer in writing that it holds only an equitable interest and may not be able to convey title. Arizona asks for honesty on paper, not a license.

Rule: A.R.S. § 44-5101 (Laws 2022 ch. 170, HB 2747) · In force: September 24, 2022 · Penalty if ignored: The statute's own section is titled 'unlawful practice.' If the wholesale buyer skips the disclosure, the seller cancels and keeps the earnest money; if the wholesale seller skips it, the buyer is repaid.
