Full text of Nevada Nevada Revised Statutes § 118.175 — Liability of tenant, with citation guidance and answers to common questions.
§ 118.175. Liability of tenant
If a tenant of real property abandons the property, the landlord shall make reasonable
efforts to rent it at a fair rental. If the landlord rents the property for a term beginning before the expiration of the
rental agreement pursuant to its terms or if, despite the landlord’s reasonable efforts,
the landlord is unable to rent the property before the rental agreement is otherwise
terminated, the former tenant is liable for any actual damages of the landlord which
may result from the abandonment. If the landlord fails to make reasonable efforts to rent the property at a fair rental,
the former tenant is liable for any actual damages of the landlord occurring before
the landlord had reason to believe that the property was abandoned. If the tenancy is from month to month or week to week, the term of the rental agreement
for this purpose is deemed to be a month or a week, as the case may be.
