Pinal treasurer charges real estate bill a conflict of interest for investor

County treasurers across Arizona say a Phoenix real estate investor is behind an attempt to change state law to avoid paying a $146,100 tax bill.

Senate Bill 1071, which would cap how much counties can charge for recording certain property deeds, is moving quickly through the state Legislature.

In hearings, supporters of the bill have said it would protect future buyers of tax liens from excessive fees.
