Residential Property Classification
Residential property falls into two main categories: Legal Class 3 and Legal Class 4. Each of these two legal classes have multiple subclasses, ranging from Primary Residence to Primary Residence that is also leased or rented to lodgers, as well as Non-Primary Residence to Qualifying LIHTC properties.Understanding the differences: Primary Residence is defined as “Property that is your residence where you or a ‘qualified family member’ reside. You can have only one primary residence no matter how many homes you own. If a property is used as a vacation home, is leased, or rented to a non-qualified family member or if you claim a home in another state as your primary residence, the property does not qualify as a primary residence.
Please note that all properties that are rented or leased are required by A.R.S. 33-1901 and 1902 to register with the Assessor

Senior Freeze
The Senior Valuation Protection program enables qualified seniors to have their Limited Value frozen,
which is the basis for all property taxes, frozen in 3 year increments to protect against the potential
of an increasing real estate market. The freezing process helps to stabilize one of the components of the
property tax bill, it does not freeze full cash value nor property taxes. This program is not an exemption
nor does it eliminate the potential for property taxes to increase from year to year, it simply freezes the
portion of the property’s value used to calculate the annual property tax bill.

While all subdivisions are named they do not all receive a Map & Plat. When Map and Plat
are entered, the result returned will represent all of the parcels within that subdivision.
Entering in either a Block number (if applicable) or a Lot number will reduce the amount of results rendered.
Map & Plat: A system of uniquely identifying subdivisions using a numeric format. The Map & Plat
(also known as Book & Map) numbers are assigned by the County Recorder’s Office at the time the subdivision is recorded.
Block & Lot: A system commonly used when large parcels of land are subdivided. The subdivision map is
recorded after each lot has been surveyed by a metes and bounds description and assigned a lot number. In this way
deeds need only refer to the lot, block, map & plat designation in order to describe the parcel in question instead
of stating the survey bearings and distances or the rectangular survey description.
A sequence number is a unique identifier that is provided for every recorded legal instrument, for more information please visit the Pima County Recorder’s Website
PLEASE NOTE: Searches using docket and page will only yield results for documents that reflect the most current ownership information. Recording information is provided by the Pima County Recorder’s Office. For complete chain of title information, please visit the Pima County Recorder’s Website

This search will return all parcels within the geographical area as defined by the Section, Township & Range entered. Section, Township, & Range are used in the “Rectangular Survey” system. This system provides for a unit of land approximately 24 miles square, bounded by a baseline running east and west, and a meridian running north and south. This 24 mile square is further divided into 6 mile squares called Townships. A Range is an east and west row of townships between two meridian lines six miles apart. A Township is divided into 36 numbered Sections, which are each 1 square mile.
