Legislative Changes in 2023: What You Need to Know

1. No More Charging for Repairs (SB381):

Starting July 1, 2023, landlords can't make tenants pay for essential repairs like plumbing or heating. Unless the damage is caused by the tenant, they shouldn't be charged extra for it.

2. Quick Home Sales Get a Pass (SB223):
If you're selling your home and leasing it back for 90 days or less, the usual short-term rental rules don't apply. This change, effective July 1, 2023, is meant to simplify things for short-term arrangements.

3. The End of AB486 (Eviction Mediation):
AB486, which helped tenants during eviction proceedings, expired on June 5, 2023. The program allowed tenants to pause evictions if they had a pending application for rent assistance.

4. New Help for Renters (Fixed Income CHAP and Eviction CHAP):
Clark County now offers two programs to assist renters – Fixed Income CHAP and Eviction CHAP. These programs provide financial aid to those facing eviction due to fixed incomes or temporary hardships.

5. Court Forms You Must Use (LVJCLRP6.2):
Since February 2023, the Las Vegas Justice Court requires landlords and tenants to use specific forms during eviction proceedings. Not following these forms may lead to case dismissal.

Keeping it simple, these changes aim to protect tenants and ensure fair practices. For more details or assistance, contact Sin City Real Estate and Management LLC  Stay informed to make renting and owning property hassle-free!
