FAQ

What is summary eviction? Summary eviction is a very fast eviction process where the tenant must file a Tenant's Affidavit in court to contest an eviction before the landlord files anything. Eviction notices do not need to be filed with a court to be valid.

What happens to my property after I vacate? Your landlord is required to safekeep your property for 30 days after you vacate the premises.

After you have provided the initial notice, then the tenant is supposed to vacate the premises at the required date. However, if the tenant does not leave voluntarily, then you will need to file a five-day unlawful detainer. This comes after the five day, three-day, seven-day or 30-day notice.

Nevada tenants have the right to live in a unit that complies with local housing and safety requirements.
