I am dealing with a landlord-tenant issue in Arizona, specifically Greenlee County. The tenant is in arrears with rent and late charges, and one of the tenants gave a 30-day notice via text, which the other tenant claims to be unaware of. The tenant is past the exit date, and the police advised issuing a 5-day notice for eviction due to non-payment of rent. My main questions are: Can the 5-day notice be served and considered valid through electronic communication? Do I need to file anything with the court at this point? How do I proceed with a forcible detainer when I live out of state? Can I give someone power of attorney to handle the situation for me?

My husband and I are approaching retirement age and have our own financial struggles, including recent medical expenses.

I am a landlord in Nevada with a signed lease that the tenant is trying to cancel before taking possession. The lease was signed on May 7, and it commences on May 11. On May 9, the tenant informed me she changed her mind. She was supposed to meet me on May 10 to get keys and pay the deposit and first month's rent. She has only paid a $40 application fee. What legal recourse do I have, and what should I do with the current lease?
