Plain English

Under A.R.S. § 41-1491 et seq. § 41-1491.28, Arizona's Attorney General is required to compile a formal investigative report when handling fair housing complaints. This report must document witness contacts, correspondence with both the aggrieved person and the respondent, relevant records, witness statements, and any interrogatory answers. The report is not static — it can be updated if new evidence surfaces after the initial version is completed.

For Property Managers

Property owners and managers who become respondents in a fair housing investigation governed by A.R.S. § 41-1491 et seq. § 41-1491.28 should be aware that their correspondence and contacts with the Attorney General's office will be summarized and included in the official investigative record. Compliant operators generally respond to interrogatories and other information requests thoroughly and in a timely manner, knowing that those responses become part of the formal report. Because the report can be amended when new evidence emerges, the record may continue to develop even after an initial report is issued.

For Tenants

A.R.S. § 41-1491 et seq. § 41-1491.28 gives aggrieved persons the assurance that the Attorney General's investigative process is documented in a structured, formal report that captures contacts, correspondence, witness statements, and other pertinent evidence. Tenants who have filed a fair housing complaint can understand that their communications with the Attorney General's office are part of this official record. If new evidence comes to light, the report may be amended, so tenant-rights organizations or legal aid resources can help individuals understand how the investigative process may unfold.
