The full day-by-day clock, with statute citations.

This is the actual policy seeded for Arizona. Every delinquent account locks in the rules that applied the day it opened — later statute updates never retroactively change a case already in flight.

What UnitOps does differently for Arizona operators

Built around the Arizona statute, not retrofitted onto generic PMS.

The 30-day default floor plus the 7-day and 14-day notice windows are enforced as a sequence — Notice 1 at D+30, Notice 2 at D+37 with the section 33-1704 sale-specific content and VIN when applicable, and our conservative default opens the auction gate at D+51.
Arizona requires notifying known lienholders at least 10 days before sale; the requirement is surfaced on the case and lienholder-copy evidence can be attached to the notice file.
Newspaper publication is not required; the five-unrelated-bidders safe-harbor is tracked on the sale itself as commercial-reasonableness evidence, not as a publication substitute.
Protected property follows a separate disposition path so it never gets sold with the rest of the unit, and unclaimed surplus transfers to Arizona DOR after the 90-day hold.

Lien evidence packet

Built for the day you get sued.

For Arizona cases, the packet presents the evidence trail beside the policy snapshot that was pinned when the case opened. It lists notices, delivery proof, ledger entries, photos, and state changes in chronological order. It presents records and citations only. The downloadable sample uses fictional seeded data with redacted names and a SAMPLE watermark.
