NV AB223

Tenants may file a verified complaint for expedited relief with the court if a landlord fails to remedy habitability issues within 14 days, with hearings required within 7 calendar days and court fees deferred until final disposition.

Expanded habitability standards require landlords to maintain doors, windows, and locks in good repair, control rodents/insects/vermin, prevent exposure to radon, lead paint, asbestos, and toxic mold, and keep required safety equipment functional.

Tenants may terminate rental agreements without early termination fees when landlords fail to remedy breaches, with the option to terminate immediately or within 60 days of providing notice.

Increased damages for unlawful removal, lockouts, or service interruptions from a maximum of $2,500 to three times the periodic rent or actual damages, whichever is greater.

Landlords must provide written receipts for each rent payment and include their email address in rental agreements; penalties for disclosure failures increased from $25 to 5% of periodic rent.
