Landlord-Tenant Laws
If you manage rental units in Nevada, you need to know the state’s Landlord-Tenant laws.
Pro Tip: Our Nevada Lease Agreement complies with all state laws. This means you don’t need to worry about these when you create your Lease.
| Category | State Law |
|---|---|
| Ending and Renewing |
Fixed-Term Lease: These Lease Agreements may terminate at the end of the Lease term unless otherwise specified. All notice provisions must be contained in the original Lease Agreement unless agreed to later by both parties in a signed,
written addendum. Periodic Tenancies: A Landlord may require a Tenant to provide written or oral notice for Lease termination equal to one periodic term of the Tenancy. For example, if rent is paid monthly, the Landlord may require up to 30 days' notice for ending a Lease Agreement |
| Security Deposit | A security deposit, including last month's rent, may not exceed an amount equal to 3 months’ rent. |
| Returned Payment Fee | The maker of a bad check may be charged a collection fee of no more than $25.00 for each dishonored check. |
| Late Fee | Late fees may not exceed 5% of regular rent. |
| Insurance Requirements | There are no laws that specifically state that a Tenant is required to carry insurance on the property. However, a Rental Agreement may specify that the Landlord requires insurance to be carried and failure to do so constitutes a Lease violation. |
| Notice to Enter | Landlords are required to give at least 24 hours' notice before entering the Leased premises. |
| Landlord Requirements |
The Lease must fully explain each fee and why it is required. This may include a non-refundable cleaning fee. A Landlord may not unreasonably withhold consent to a Tenant’s request to assign/sublet the property. |
Contact your local housing or zoning office to ensure your rental property complies with city and county requirements for inspections, rent control, occupancy limits, property codes, and zoning. Many cities and counties require inspections and registrations and have specific maintenance regulations.
Required Disclosures
Nevada requires that the following disclosures be included in the Lease Agreement. We automatically include these in our Lease Agreement to make your life EZ.
- Fees: Any rental fees that are non-refundable must be stated in the Lease Agreement.
- Foreclosure: If the Property has foreclosure proceedings pending, it must be disclosed to the Tenant.
- Lead-Based Paint Disclosure: If a rental unit was built before 1978, occupants must be provided with a lead-based paint disclosure.
- Move-In Checklist: At the time the tenancy starts, renters must be provided with a signed current condition of the property checklist.
- Nuisance/Violation Guidance: Tenants must be provided with a guide on the steps to report a nuisance or violation on the property.
- USA Flag - Right to Raise: THe Landlord must provide Tenants with information on their right to wave the flag on the property.
Want to make sure you include all required disclosures? We make it EZ and automatically include all state-required language, terms, and disclosures.
FAQ
Does a Lease need to be notarized in Nevada?
Sometimes Lease Agreements do not need to be notarized if they’re being signed by both the Landlord, or lessor, and Tenant, or lessee. Once the Lease is signed by both parties, it’s considered legally binding and fully enforceable.
However, if an agent is signing on behalf of the Landlord, the Lease Agreement does need to be notarized.
How do you write a simple Lease Agreement?
A simple Lease Agreement needs to include key terms, including the names of the Landlord and Tenant, the property address, rent amount, rent due date, the Lease term, security deposit information, and late fee information.
Keep in mind, however, that this is only the most basic information that must be included. Writing a simple Lease Agreement isn’t easy and puts the Landlord at risk of not having complete protection. Because of this, it’s best to avoid simple, blank Lease templates or fillable generic forms.
Instead, you need a state-specific Lease Agreement that complies with all state Lease laws and covers all policies for your rental unit.
What’s the standard Lease term in Nevada?
The standard Nevada Lease term is one year (12 months). However, shorter and longer terms are acceptable as long as they’re agreed upon by both parties.
Thankfully, we offer short-term and long-term Lease Agreements, including our Vacation Rental Contract, Month-to-Month Lease Agreement, and Nevada Lease Agreement.
How should I save my Lease Agreements?
Once you’ve gotten a great Lease Agreement signed, it’s important to keep it accessible to address any Tenant issues that arise. Our Lease Agreement is automatically stored securely on the cloud. It’s also EZ to print or download and save as a PDF.
Whether you prefer a hard copy or an electronic copy, make sure you have a system for securely storing your signed Lease Agreements!
Who needs a Lease Agreement?
Anyone who rents real estate needs a Lease Agreement. This is true whether you’re renting an apartment, condo, single-family home, or duplex. While there are some Nevada Lease templates available - for example, the one offered by the Nevada Association of Realtors - it’s best to avoid these basic Lease templates.
Instead, invest in a quality Lease agreement that is state-specific, customizable, and comprehensive.
