NV AB341

Landlords are prohibited from refusing to rent or negotiate rental of a dwelling to a corporation that rents on behalf of a person with a disability solely because the corporation provides housing assistance to persons with disabilities

When a landlord denies a rental application from such a corporation, they must submit a written explanation of the denial reasons within 7 days to the corporation, the Aging and Disability Services Division, and the Office of the Ombudsman for Owners in Common-Interest Communities and Condominium Hotels

Persons injured by violations may file complaints with the Nevada Equal Rights Commission or bring a civil action in district court within 1 year, with potential awards of actual damages, punitive damages, court costs, and attorney's fees

Tenants have a defense in eviction proceedings if the landlord's attempt to terminate tenancy or regain possession violates these provisions

Landlords are prohibited from retaliating against tenants who complain in good faith about violations of these new protections
