Break Lease (AZ)

landlord tenant attorney Arizona Aug 23, 2026
Location: Arizona. Hello, I stay in AZ and have been here for about 3 weeks.. with that being said ever since my first day I’ve seen roaches. The apartment isn’t heavily infested but I notice 2 almost every other day and they’ve sent someone to spray but that hasn’t been sufficient. They’ve also stated the guy was coming back in two weeks and he has. I sent a follow up email stating it wasn’t sufficient and included 10 more recent photos of roaches (different areas to show they’re in my apartment) my apartment is clean, I barely have furniture really just my clothes a tv stand , tv and couch. Also I noticed every time I cook the aroma also brings them out. My apartment is partially finished which I knew but they literally have so many open holes in the apartment and flimsy vinyl flooring it’s basically a shitty apartment that they knew of but still rented out. With all my little venting aside. With me being here for 3 months can I reasonably break my lease without facing too much repercussion. I know I would have to pay a certain dollar amount but do you think they will ask for the remainder of the lease $ amount or cut me a break? Please help, I literally can not live with bugs and I woke up to three on my couch crawling on me which woke me up out my sleep. It’s totally disgusting and I’m literally a whole 30 hours away from family and just started a new job where I haven’t received my first check yet. But I’m willing to live out of my car to avoid this.
