Explanation
NRS Chapter 116 (the Nevada Uniform Common-Interest Ownership Act) governs HOAs, condominium associations, and planned communities — an enormous sector of Nevada's housing market, particularly in Las Vegas and Henderson where most neighborhoods are HOA-governed. Agents must understand HOA disclosure requirements (providing the HOA resale package, including financial statements, budgets, CC&Rs, rules), HOA assessment lien priority, and the Nevada HOA Ombudsman's role in resolving community disputes.
