Current Nevada Law: Subject to Verification
Nevada common-interest communities are governed primarily by NRS Chapter 116, and the resale disclosure framework for units is set out in NRS 116.4109, which requires an association to furnish a resale package containing governing documents and related information within the statutory timeframe after a request. Fees and deadlines change and are fact-specific. Verify current Nevada law and the specific facts of your transaction with a qualified Nevada attorney and title professional.
Why Buyers Should Care
The Nevada resale disclosure framework for units is set out in NRS 116.4109 within NRS Chapter 116 (Common-Interest Ownership).
When you buy an HOA home, you are not buying only:
Example
3 bedrooms
2 bathrooms
pool
You are also entering a private common-interest community with:
- Rules
- Assessments
- Governance
- Financial obligations
- Common property
What Should Buyers Look For?
Monthly assessment
How much?
Special assessments
Anything pending or already imposed?
Reserves
Does the association appear financially prepared for major common expenses?
Litigation
Is the association involved in significant litigation disclosed in the package?
Rules
Can you:
- Rent?
- Park an RV?
- Install solar?
- Change landscaping?
- Operate a short-term rental?
Never assume.
Why This Matters in Las Vegas
HOAs are common throughout much of the Las Vegas Valley.
A buyer choosing between two similar Henderson homes may discover that the HOA structure makes them financially or practically very different properties.
Condo Buyers
Association information can also matter to mortgage financing.
A lender may need to determine whether the condominium/project satisfies its program requirements.
Sellers: Order Early
If the seller is responsible for obtaining required resale information, don't create an avoidable closing crisis by waiting.
