• Electrical service & panelNot in this windowNothing in the permit records we read for this parcel that names this system. That does not tell you the service is original — only that nothing has been permitted here recently. The build year is the better clue, and it is above.
• Heating & coolingPermitted — completion not confirmedA 2025 permit specifies this work (the permit description states “Single Family Residence Alteration — Interior remodel – HVAC, electrical, insulation”), but the available record does not show a final inspection. The work was permitted, but final completion is not confirmed. Official status: Issued. The assessor records cooling as Refrigeration and heating as Forced Air (assessor characteristics can lag permitted work). P25BP09115 — Single Family Residence Alteration — Interior remodel – HVAC, electrical, insulation
• Water heaterNot in this windowNothing in the permit records we read for this parcel that names this system. Water heaters are frequently swapped without a permit, so this line is especially weak evidence either way.
• RoofNot in this windowNothing in the permit records we read for this parcel that names this system. The assessor records the roof as Built Up.
• Plumbing work on recordPermitted — completion not confirmedA 2026 permit specifies this work (the permit description states “Mechanical/Plumbing Equipment — Newman Plumbing Sewer Repair & Plumbing Updates”), but the available record does not show a final inspection. The work was permitted, but final completion is not confirmed. Official status: Issued. P26BP01995 — Mechanical/Plumbing Equipment — Newman Plumbing Sewer Repair & Plumbing Updates

A found permit means a lot. A missing one means less. This parcel is in unincorporated Pima County, so we read the county’s own permit system — including its historical permits, which reach back into the 1990s where they exist. Every record links to the county’s official file. A blank line does not say nothing was done: work gets done without permits all the time. The only way to know what is actually installed is to look at it.

What that usually means electrically

• Era-based check — high priority

  This is the aluminum branch-circuit window (roughly 1965–1973). Solid aluminum on 15/20 A circuits is a recognized fire hazard at the terminations and needs approved repair — COPALUM or AlumiConn, not a wire nut. The permit record does not confirm this; an on-site inspection is required.

• Era-based check — high priority

  Federal Pacific (Stab-Lok) and Zinsco/Sylvania panels were sold through this period. Stab-Lok breakers have a documented history of failing to trip internally; Zinsco breakers can weld to the bus so the handle moves without breaking the circuit. In both cases a replacement breaker does not resolve it — the panel itself is what gets replaced. The permit record does not confirm this; an on-site inspection is required.

• Era-based check

  100 A was typical. Adding an EV charger, heat pump, or casita usually forces a service upgrade first. The permit record does not confirm this; an on-site inspection is required.

• Worth confirming

  The assessor records a pool on this parcel. Equipment bonding, the equipotential bonding grid and GFCI protection on the pump and light circuits are the usual findings on pool equipment — the pool-bonding rules in NEC Article 680 were expanded in the 2008 cycle, so a pool built before that is worth an on-site check.

Recorded sales (1)

Recorded sales are the sales the Pima County Assessor has on file from affidavits of property value — not every transfer, not listings, and not a valuation. Parties are never shown here. A sale with no permitted electrical work since is worth knowing before the next sale or a remodel.

Most recent permit on record for this parcel: 2026-06-11 (P26BP01971-01) — Single Family Residence Alteration - Revision.

Permit history (9)

How to read the status column: Final / Complete / C of O — city records show the permit was finalized. Issued — the work was permitted, but final completion is not confirmed. Applied / In review / Approved / Fees paid — proposed, not completion. Expired — the permit expired without a confirmed final status. Void / Withdrawn / Canceled — not evidence the work was installed. Any other status is shown exactly as the issuing office records it, without a completion reading.

Record numbers link to the issuing office’s official file — Pima County’s portal for county permits, the City of Tucson’s for city records. Highlighted rows are the ones that imply electrical work or an unpermitted-work finding.

This is an inference from public records — the year a structure was built, how it is classified, and what has been permitted. It is not an inspection, and nothing here confirms what is actually installed at this address. The only way to know is to look in the panel. See an error in this public-record report?
