Bill > AB211

This bill establishes comprehensive procedures for addressing substandard residential multifamily rental properties in Nevada, both in unincorporated county areas and incorporated city areas. The legislation requires county and city departments to notify property owners when their rental properties violate habitability, housing, building, or fire safety standards to such an extent that they substantially endanger residents' or the public's health and safety. If property owners fail to repair, rehabilitate, or abate these conditions after receiving official notice, local governments or nonprofit tenant organizations can take legal action to have the property declared "substandard" through a district court. The bill provides a detailed process for potential court-appointed receivership, where a qualified receiver can take control of the property, collect rents, make necessary repairs, and manage the property until conditions are improved. The legislation also mandates that owners provide relocation benefits to tenants, including moving costs, storage expenses, and compensation for rental price differentials if tenants cannot safely inhabit the property. Additionally, the bill ensures tenant protections, requires detailed monthly reporting to local and state authorities, and preserves property owners' constitutional rights. The overall goal is to provide a structured legal framework for addressing severely substandard rental properties while balancing the interests of property owners, tenants, and local communities.
