Understanding Nevada Real Estate Law
Nevada's real estate legal framework differs significantly from other states. Understanding these differences is essential for anyone conducting due diligence on Nevada property.
📜 Nevada Uses Deeds of Trust (NRS Chapter 107)
Nevada is a deed of trust state, not a mortgage state. This means real estate loans involve three parties: the borrower (trustor), lender (beneficiary), and a neutral trustee who holds bare legal title until the loan is paid. This structure enables non-judicial foreclosure through trustee sales under NRS Chapter 107, typically completing in 120-180 days rather than the 6-12+ months required for judicial foreclosure.
Key Nevada Real Estate Statutes
⚖️ NRS 107 – Deeds of Trust and Foreclosure
NRS Chapter 107 governs deeds of trust and the trustee sale process in Nevada. Key provisions include:
- NRS 107.080: Establishes the trustee's power of sale and requires 90+ days from notice of default to sale
- NRS 107.086: Nevada Foreclosure Mediation Program for owner-occupied properties
- NRS 107.087: Notice requirements for residential foreclosures
- Notice of Default: Must be recorded and mailed; 35-day cure period for borrowers
- Notice of Sale: Minimum 21 days before auction; must be posted, mailed, and published
- No Redemption: Nevada has no statutory right of redemption after trustee sale
🏠 NRS 116 – Common-Interest Communities (HOAs)
NRS Chapter 116 governs homeowner associations and contains Nevada's powerful HOA super-priority lien provisions. This is critical for auction buyers in Las Vegas and other planned communities.
🔨 NRS 108 – Mechanic's Liens
NRS Chapter 108 establishes mechanic's lien rights for contractors, subcontractors, and material suppliers. Nevada mechanic's liens relate back to the date of commencement of work and may have priority over subsequent deeds of trust.
💍 Community Property State
Nevada is a community property state, meaning property acquired during marriage is generally owned equally by both spouses. This affects title searches because both spouses typically must sign deeds and deeds of trust for community property, even if only one spouse's name is on title.
💰 Real Property Transfer Tax
Nevada imposes a Real Property Transfer Tax of $1.95 per $500 of value (approximately 0.39%). Clark County adds an additional $0.60 per $500, bringing the total to $2.55 per $500 for Las Vegas area properties. This tax is typically paid by the seller and recorded with the deed.
⚠️ Critical: Nevada HOA Super-Priority Liens
⚠️ Nevada's HOA Liens Can Extinguish First Deeds of Trust
Under NRS 116.3116, Nevada HOA liens have "super-priority" status for up to 9 months of unpaid assessments. The Nevada Supreme Court ruled in SFR Investments Pool 1 v. U.S. Bank (2014) that this super-priority portion has true lien priority—not just payment priority—meaning an HOA foreclosure can extinguish first deeds of trust.
This makes Nevada one of the most complex states for foreclosure and auction purchases. Investors who purchase at HOA foreclosure sales may acquire properties worth hundreds of thousands of dollars for just a few thousand dollars in unpaid HOA dues. However, buyers must understand:
- Only the super-priority portion (≤9 months assessments) has priority – amounts beyond this are junior to the first deed of trust
- 2015 amendments require HOAs to notify lienholders before foreclosure under Senate Bill 306
- First lien holders can pay off the HOA lien to protect their security interest
- 60-day redemption period exists after HOA foreclosure sales (NRS 116.31166)
The Full Property Owner Lien Report is essential for any Nevada auction purchase because it identifies HOA liens, their amounts, and whether any super-priority portion exists that could affect your purchase.

What liens survive a Nevada trustee sale?
Liens that survive Nevada trustee sales include property tax liens, IRS tax liens (with redemption rights), senior deeds of trust recorded before the foreclosing lien, certain municipal assessments, and portions of HOA liens. Under NRS 116.3116, HOA super-priority liens (up to 9 months assessments) have priority over first deeds of trust. The Full Property Owner Lien Report ($195) identifies all surviving liens.
What is Nevada's HOA super-priority lien?
Under NRS 116.3116, Nevada HOA assessment liens have a "super-priority" portion (up to 9 months of assessments) that has priority over first deeds of trust. The Nevada Supreme Court confirmed in 2014 that HOA foreclosure on this super-priority amount can extinguish first deeds of trust entirely. This makes HOA lien verification essential for any Nevada property purchase.
Do you cover all 17 Nevada counties?
Yes, we provide complete coverage for all 17 Nevada county-level jurisdictions including Clark County (Las Vegas, Henderson, North Las Vegas), Washoe County (Reno, Sparks), Carson City, Douglas, Lyon, Nye, Elko, and all rural Nevada counties.
Why does Nevada use deeds of trust instead of mortgages?
Nevada adopted deeds of trust because they enable faster foreclosure resolution through non-judicial trustee sales under NRS 107.080, typically completing in 120-180 days. Traditional mortgage foreclosure requires judicial proceedings that can extend timelines to 6-12+ months. Deeds of trust also provide clearer procedures for lenders while still protecting borrower rights through statutory notice requirements.
What is the best title search for Nevada trustee sales?
The Full Property Owner Lien Report ($195) is essential for Nevada trustee sales.
