Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in Nevada

Re: rent

Always check your lease for special provisions if you have a written lease. However, your lease is subject to the landlord's right to the property. If the bank is foreclosing they probably don't have a right to evict you until the foreclosure is complete. They also have to file a formal eviction action but this can be completed fairly quickly in Nevada. The situation is unfair given that the landlord was just pocketing your money, but there is no real remedy for you there--you received the service you bargained for.

You would be able to sue your landlord for damages if you were evicted in the middle of a lease period. However, since you were on a month-to-month lease anyway you don't have many damages since the landlord could have terminated the lease freely. I would contact the bank and try to arrange some extra-legal solution to the problem if you feel you absolutely must stay in the home.
