Nevada Landlords (Investors and Property Managers) face new regulations in 2025 that came out of the 2025 Legislative session.
Key Changes from the Nevada Legislature in 2025:
Rent Payment Methods:
Landlords must provide at least one rent payment option that requires no fees and no bank information from the tenant.
- This is standard practice for RPM Peace, no change required.
Fee Transparency:
All mandatory monthly charges, including base rent, must be listed as a single figure (the “maximum total periodic rent”) in listings and lease agreements. Landlords must provide a lease appendix listing all allowed fees. I.E. Pet rent, Utility charges, etc.
Application Fees:
Application fees must be refunded if they are not used for their stated purpose of conducting credit, background, or income screenings.
- This is standard practice for RPM Peace, no change required.
Eviction Process:
AB283 mandates that landlords serve tenants with a full package of documents at the start of an eviction, including the complaint affidavit, rental agreement, and a summons clearly outlining tenant responsibilities and deadlines.
- Mandatory Disclosures:
Landlords are required to disclose known structural or environmental issues and provide tenants with a copy of the rental agreement.
- This is captured on the Property Data Sheet; we require Investor/Owner to provide during onboarding.
Utility Billing:
There are now tight restrictions on how utilities can be billed if they are not included in the “maximum total periodic rent”.
- This is standard practice for RPM Peace, no change required.
Pet Policies (SB166):
The law prohibiting insurance companies from canceling policies based on dog breeds is expanded to include apartments and other multi-family residences. Supportive housing landlords may also be required to allow at least one pet.
- This is standard practice for RPM Peace, no change required.
Waste Removal:
Landlords must provide waste removal services at no additional charge to tenants.
- Trash can be charged to the tenant must be noted in the lease.
What This Means:
Lease Agreements:
Landlords need to update their lease agreements to include a fee appendix and list all mandatory charges as a single figure.
- This is standard practice for RPM Peace, no change required.
Tenant Communication:
More detailed and transparent communication with tenants is required, particularly for fee structures and the eviction process.
- This is standard practice for RPM Peace, no change required.
Payment Processing:
Landlords must offer at least one free and easy-to-use payment option for rent.
- This is standard practice for RPM Peace, no change required.
