Paradise, NV Rental Property Rules: Rent Control (2026)

Nevada does not have statewide rent control, and there is no enabling legislation permitting Clark County or any Nevada municipality to impose rent control on private residential rentals. Unincorporated Clark County, Las Vegas, Henderson, and North Las Vegas all operate under the same state framework. Under Nevada Revised Statutes Chapter 118A (the Landlord Tenant Act), landlords of month-to-month tenancies may raise rent by any amount with at least 60 days written notice. For fixed-term leases, rent may not be changed during the term unless the lease allows for it. Nevada does not require landlords to justify rent increases or limit them based on CPI or any percentage cap. Although Nevada tenant advocacy groups have proposed rent stabilization legislation multiple times, as of the most recent legislative sessions, no rent control or cap has been enacted. Clark County cannot pass its own rent control ordinance without enabling state legislation — under the Dillon Rule principles generally applied to Nevada counties under NRS 244, counties exercise only those powers granted by the state. This leaves tenants with general NRS 118A protections including security deposit limits (three months rent maximum under NRS 118A.242), habitability requirements, and required notice periods for termination and entry. For federal subsidized housing (Section 8, LIHTC), federal caps and guidelines apply. Some Nevada mobile home parks have limited rent protection under NRS 118B, with separate dispute resolution procedures.
