Yes, a contract to lease is legally binding in Arizona. To be valid, a contract to lease may have to be written. Oral leases may be valid in some cases (especially when both parties later behave as though there’s an enforceable oral lease), but often have strict limitations on enforceability for things like length of the lease term. Arizona requires all blank spaces filled out in a lease for the writing to be completely valid.
