Do You Have to Tell a Buyer Your Yuma House Is Near the Air Station?

Yes, if the house sits inside the territory the state has mapped around Marine Corps Air Station Yuma. Since December 31, 2006, Arizona law has required a seller of a home in the territory in the vicinity of a military airport, as drawn on the State Land Department's map, to give the buyer a written disclosure before title transfers ¹. For MCAS Yuma and the Army's Laguna Army Airfield, that territory runs five miles north, south and west of the center of the main runway and ten miles east ². The air station itself covers five square miles of southeastern Yuma and hosts about 70 aviation units a year, bringing an average of 600 aircraft for training ³.

To see where your street falls, open the state's 2026 MCAS Yuma map. It outlines the territory in the vicinity and draws the 65, 70 and 75 decibel noise contours, the accident potential zones and the clear zones inside it ⁴. The Arizona real estate commissioner also records a notice with the county recorder for that territory, saying property there "may be subject to increased noise and accident potential" ⁵. If your house is inside the line, tell us on the call. It's one more page at closing, and we look at it the way we look at the roof and the air conditioner.

Can You Sell a Yuma House With a Worn-Out AC or Roof?

Yes, and in Yuma that wear comes with the climate. In 2023 the National Weather Service counted 103 days at 100°F or above at Yuma, 36 of them at 110°F or above, with a high of 118°F on August 28 ⁶. Summers like that run an air conditioner hard for months and bake a roof, so a tired condenser, sun-cracked shingles or a water heater near the end of its life are common in houses here.

None of it has to be fixed before you sell. Tell us how old the AC and the roof are, what has been replaced and what hasn't, and whether anything is not working today. The repairs left undone are part of the condition we price.

Should You List Your Yuma House or Take a Cash Offer?

If your Yuma house is updated and you can wait, an agent may well get you more than our cash offer. What comes out of a listing is the commission, the repairs a buyer's inspector asks for, and the months of mortgage, insurance and summer power bills while the house sits. The Yuma County figures on this page show how long listings have been taking.

The example below prices a listing at the county's median asking price. Put its net next to our written offer; if the listing comes out ahead and time is on your side, list it.

On a $350,000 sale

Example, not a quote.

Listing with an agent

Sale price: $350,000
Agent commission (5.5% here; it varies): −$19,250
Repairs before listing (example): −$10,000
Your share of the escrow fee, recording and lien releases (example; escrow companies vary): −$1,000
Three months of carrying costs (example): −$6,300
You'd walk away with: $313,450

Comparing a cash offer

In this example, listing would leave you about $313,450 before your mortgage payoff. Compare that with your cash offer, less any closing costs you'd still pay.

Your figures depend on the house, what you owe, your HOA if you have one, and the escrow company. Want your real numbers? Enter your address above or call (984) 489-8269.

Probate, Divorce or a Trustee's Sale Notice in Yuma County?

In Yuma, the county Recorder and Assessor are both on S. Main Street, and the courts are at 250 West 2nd Street. Below is the Yuma part of each situation, with Arizona's statewide rules on our Arizona page. It isn't legal advice, so ask an Arizona attorney about your own situation.

How Long Does Foreclosure Take in Arizona?

A notice of trustee's sale is recorded in the county where the house sits ⁷; in Yuma County that's the Recorder's Office at 298 S. Main Street, which keeps a searchable database of recorded documents ⁸. Unpaid property taxes are a separate track: each February the Treasurer holds a tax lien sale for taxes left delinquent ⁹. How the trustee's sale clock runs is on our Arizona page. If a sale date is set, talk to an Arizona attorney, then call us.

The Clerk of the Superior Court is on the first floor of the Yuma County Justice Center, open 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. on weekdays ¹¹.

A city can fine an owner who never filed, but one who files within ten days of the notice pays no penalty ¹⁴. Tenants can stay through a sale; how leases and deposits carry over is on our Arizona page.

Does Arizona's Senior Property Tax Freeze Move With You?

If you froze your home's value under Arizona's senior valuation protection option, the Yuma County Assessor at 197 S. Main Street handles it ¹³.

What Yuma Sellers Ask About the Air Station, Heat and Taxes

Prefer to talk it through?

Call (984) 489-8269

What's the earliest a Yuma sale could close?

In as little as 14 days after you accept our written offer, or on a later date you pick. The escrow company's title search and your lender's payoff figure usually set the pace; probate, a divorce decree or a tenant's lease can add a step.

Does an agent get more for a Yuma house than a cash buyer?

Often, for an updated house and an owner who can wait. Compare what each leaves you after the commission, the repairs a buyer's inspector asks for, and the months of carrying costs, summer power bills included.

My Yuma house is in the airport noise zone. Can a buyer add on or rebuild?

The City of Yuma's Airport Overlay District covers new building, moving, expanding or rebuilding; it doesn't require changes to a home that was lawfully built before the rules. A home the overlay made nonconforming can be rebuilt to its original size after a fire or other disaster, and can add up to 50% of its original floor area under the zoning that applied before. Subdivisions platted and built out to city standards before the overlay took effect are exempt, as long as future work follows the city's other rules ¹⁷. Which zone you're in is on the state's map ⁴.

My house is in the Century Heights or Brinley Avenue historic district. Do I need city approval to sell?

Not to sell. The city's Design and Historic Review Commission reviews development plans in its three historic districts, Main Street, Century Heights and Brinley Avenue ¹⁸. Under city code, changing the outside of a building there needs that review, while ordinary maintenance and repair that keeps the same design, material, color and appearance doesn't ¹⁷. Tell us if the house is a contributing structure.

Is there help fixing my air conditioner instead of selling my Yuma house?

Possibly. The City of Yuma's Residential Rehabilitation Program helps low- and moderate-income owners inside city limits repair major systems, including heat and air conditioning, roofs, plumbing and electric. It's a loan that becomes a grant if you keep living in the house for its term, with a city lien on the house until then. From June 1, 2026 the income limit is $44,700 for one person and $51,100 for two; Neighborhood Services is at 928-373-5187 ¹⁹. If a rehab lien is already on your house, tell us on the call.

Is the Foothills part of the City of Yuma?

No. The Census Bureau lists Fortuna Foothills as a census-designated place in Yuma County; the county's incorporated places are Yuma, Somerton, San Luis and Wellton ²⁰. We buy in the Foothills too. A house on land in an unincorporated area that isn't part of a subdivision needs an extra disclosure affidavit ²¹, explained on our Arizona page.

When are Yuma County property taxes due?

In two halves. The first half of 2026 taxes was due October 1 and is late after 5 p.m. on November 2; the second half is due March 1, 2027 and late after 5 p.m. on May 3. Paying the full year by December 31 avoids interest ⁹. Questions go to the Treasurer at 197 S. Main St., Suite 203, (928) 539-7781 ²². Tell us what's unpaid so it's in the numbers from the start.

Do you buy houses near Yuma?

Yes. We also buy houses in Somerton, San Luis and Wellton ²⁰. If you're not sure, call us.

Arizona rules that apply to every sale, from trustee's sales to the senior valuation freeze, are on our Arizona page.
