Does Nevada have rent control?

No — Nevada has no statewide rent control or stabilization. There is no statewide rent control. For homes covered by NRS chapter 118A, Nevada statutes cap neither the size nor the frequency of increases — only the notice period. In a manufactured home park the lot rent has no ceiling either, but an increased rent must match the rent charged for comparable lots in the park, and the landlord may not raise rent after a closure notice is served, or in the 180 days before or at any time after it applies for a change in the park's land use unless the application is withdrawn or denied and the park keeps operating (NRS 118B.150, 118B.177 and 118B.183).

Does Nevada preempt local rent control ordinances?

No Nevada statute expressly addresses local rent control — state law neither authorizes nor prohibits cities or counties from regulating residential rents. The current codes of Las Vegas, Henderson, Reno, North Las Vegas, Sparks, Carson City, Clark County and Washoe County contain no general rent control. Reno and Carson City limit rent increases during the notice period before rental housing is converted to condominiums (Reno Annexation and Land Development Code section 18.06.306; Carson City Municipal Code section 17.17.090).

Can a landlord raise the rent during a fixed-term lease in Nevada?

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.

Verified October 1, 2026 All Nevada topics →

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have applied since July 1, 2021, when AB 308 raised them from 45 and 15 days, so any source still quoting 45 days is out of date.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 under the landlord and tenant act, and in a fixed-term lease the rent also cannot change mid-term unless the lease itself allows it. A manufactured home lot is governed by a separate act, which requires 90 days' written notice. Beyond the notice requirement Nevada imposes no limit on how much or how often the rent for a home under the landlord and tenant act may rise: there is no statewide rent control, no statute expressly allows or bars local rent control, and the codes of the largest cities and counties contain none. Since 2015 counties and cities have held the powers needed to address matters of local concern, but unless a statute allows it they may not prescribe the law governing civil actions between private persons. A 2023 bill that would have let them enact any ordinance or measure relating to affordable housing (SB 371) was vetoed.

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.

A 2025 bill draft request on housing (BDR 10-513) was never introduced as a bill, and the November 2025 special session enacted nothing on rents.

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, and no general local rent control — No section of NRS chapters 118, 118A, 118B, 244 or 268 expressly addresses local rent control, so the absence is what is shown here rather than a claim of preemption. Nevada applies Dillon's Rule to local governments as the Legislature modified it in 2015: a county or city has the powers necessary or proper to address matters of local concern even where no statute grants them, but unless a statute allows it, it may not prescribe the law governing civil actions between private persons (NRS 244.137 to 244.146; NRS 268.001 to 268.0035). No statute says whether rent regulation falls within those powers. SB 371 (2023), which would have let counties and cities enact any ordinance or measure relating to affordable housing, was vetoed by Gov. Lombardo. The current codes of the largest cities and counties contain no general rent control.
Do not confuse the two SB 371s — SB 371 (2023) is the vetoed bill that would have let counties and cities enact any ordinance or measure relating to affordable housing. SB 371 (2025) is an unrelated trespass bill.
Retaliatory increases are separately barred — NRS 118A.510(1) prohibits raising rent in retaliation for protected tenant conduct.
What the new rent figure must look like — Since October 1, 2025 the size of the notice is not the only constraint on an increase. Wherever a landlord lists the amount of rent due under a written rental agreement, the rent must be set out as a single figure representing the maximum total amount of periodic rent, including any mandatory fees charged to the tenant on top of the base rent, and the landlord may not charge periodic rent above that maximum total. A separate monthly fee equal to the cost of electric, natural gas or water service supplied to the tenant's own unit may sit outside the single figure, but only where the public utility cannot contract with the tenant directly or, for a water fee, the unit is on a master-metered water system, and only where the agreement carries a reference symbol and an explanatory statement on the same page. So an increased rent still has to be expressed as one all-in number.

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.
