How much notice is required to raise the rent in Nevada?
Nevada landlords cannot increase rent unless they serve the tenant with written notice at least 60 days before the first increased rental payment — or 30 days for periodic tenancies shorter than one month, such as week-to-week.

Those figures have applied since July 1, 2021, when AB 308 raised them from 45 and 15 days, so any source still quoting 45 days is out of date. The statute covers rent increases in every tenancy, and in a fixed-term lease the rent also cannot change mid-term unless the lease itself allows it. Beyond the notice requirement Nevada imposes no limit on how much or how often rent may rise: there is no statewide rent control, and no Nevada city or county has rent control — as a Dillon's Rule state, local governments would need express legislative authorization that does not exist, and the 2023 bill that would have granted it (SB 371) was vetoed.
Nevada rent increase notice at a glance
| Notice — month-to-month | 60 days |
|---|---|
| Varies by increase size | Not addressed by statute |
| Fixed-term leases | In a fixed-term lease the rent is locked until renewal unless the lease itself authorizes a mid-term increase, and the 60-day notice still governs any increase taking effect at renewal. NRS 118A.300 is not limited to periodic tenancies — it bars ANY rent increase unless the landlord serves the written notice. A mid-term increase must additionally be authorized by the lease as a contract matter. |
| Statewide rent control / stabilization | No |
| Rent control details | There is no statewide rent control. Nevada statutes cap neither the size nor the frequency of increases — only the notice period. A 2025 rent-stabilization proposal (BDR 10-513) never advanced, and the November 2025 special session enacted nothing on rents. |
| Local rent regulation | No Nevada statute expressly addresses local rent control — state law neither authorizes nor prohibits cities or counties from regulating residential rents, and no Nevada locality has enacted rent control. |
| Frequency limits | Not addressed by statute |

Notes and caveats
- Stale-source trap: 45 days has been wrong since July 1, 2021 — The pre-2021 figures were 45 days for monthly-or-longer periodic tenancies and 15 days for sub-monthly ones. AB 308 (2021) Sec. 7 changed them to 60 and 30 effective July 1, 2021 — the enrolled bill text shows [45]->60 and [15]->30. Many charts still say 45; some updated ones say 60 but keep the stale 15.
- Two figures sit behind the headline 60 days — Sixty days governs periodic tenancies of a month or longer; periodic tenancies shorter than one month, such as week-to-week, get 30 days. The comparison figure carries only the 60, so the 30-day sub-monthly period is carried in the plain-language summary and here.
- No preemption statute — but no local rent control either — NRS ch. 118A contains no express preemption section, and no express rent-control preemption statute appears elsewhere in NRS, so the absence is what is shown here rather than a claim of preemption. In practice Nevada is a Dillon's Rule state, so local governments lack authority absent an express grant; SB 371 (2023), which would have granted it, was vetoed by Gov. Lombardo; and no local ordinance exists. The practical effect resembles preemption — there is simply no statute to cite.
- Do not confuse the two SB 371s — SB 371 (2023) is the vetoed bill that would have authorized local rent control. SB 371 (2025) is an unrelated trespass bill.
- Retaliatory increases are separately barred — NRS 118A.510(1)(f) prohibits raising rent in retaliation for protected tenant conduct.

How this record was verified: Direct read of statute text on the official Nevada Legislature site (leg.state.nv.us NRS-118A.html, Rev. 4/15/2026, codified through the 2025 session): NRS 118A.242, 118A.240, 118A.300, 118A.210 and 118A.330 each read on the official page and independently re-read on the codes.findlaw.com mirror (current through 1/1/2025); every key number matched verbatim across both reads. Session laws read in full from official archive PDFs: enrolled AB 308 (2021) confirming the 45-to-60-day and 15-to-30-day rent-notice change (Sec. 7, eff. 7/1/2021) and the 3-calendar-day late-fee grace period (Sec. 2); enrolled AB 121 (2025, all-in rent pricing, eff. 10/1/2025, confirmed codified); enrolled AB 223 (2025) read and confirmed VETOED (its changes absent from the official codified text). 2025 regular-session and 36th Special Session outcomes checked 2026-07-10; Nevada's biennial legislature has no 2026 regular session.
