Hi, I'm interested in renting at MAA Fountainhead and could move in soon. I see your starting price is $1,493. San Sonoma is working out to about $1,413 a month with its current special. Is there anything you can do to get closer to that, like a bigger special or waiving the application and admin fees? Could you also send me prices for 12, 13 and 15-month leases? Thank you!
How to use it
- Ask for prices on several lease lengths and move-in dates.
- If the rent won’t move, ask for waived fees or a bigger special.
- Get any deal in writing before you sign.

A rough guide, not a quote: it assumes a typical all-electric apartment with central AC, at roughly 12¢ per kWh, before the utility’s fixed monthly service charge. Your bill depends on your plan (time-of-use plans can cost more or less), the thermostat, the unit’s age and sun exposure. Many complexes also bill water, sewer and trash separately.

- MAA WWARRS LLC
Code-enforcement and eviction records aren’t available for Tempe yet. We currently cover Phoenix and Mesa, and add cities as their records become available.
Records are matched to the complex’s county parcel (12333046A), so complaints filed under any of its addresses count. A complaint isn’t a confirmed violation; check its status. Eviction filings come from Maricopa County Justice Courts data published by the City of Phoenix, and larger complexes naturally have more. Tenant names are never collected. Property facts from the Maricopa County Assessor.
Prices are what MAA advertised on its website, checked daily since Apr 21, 2026. Contact the property to confirm current pricing. Before you sign, read up on your rights as an Arizona renter.
