Under NRS 118A.242, Henderson landlords cannot demand a security deposit exceeding three months of periodic rent, must return it within thirty days of move-out, and must provide an itemized statement of any deductions.
Henderson follows Nevada's statewide security-deposit framework in NRS 118A.242. The total of any security, cleaning, or pet deposit cannot exceed three months of rent. After tenancy ends, landlords have thirty days to return the balance and provide a written itemized statement of any deductions for damage beyond normal wear and tear or unpaid rent. Failure to return the deposit on time, or to itemize deductions, exposes the landlord to actual damages plus an additional amount equal to the entire deposit as a penalty. Henderson has no city-level deposit rule that supplements the statewide cap.
Failing to return the deposit balance within thirty days, or omitting an itemized statement of deductions, can trigger statutory damages equal to the entire deposit plus actual losses.
