Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in Nevada

Re: landlord rights

You may not hold his personal property as collateral for your rent. You must file eviction procedures within your County first and then may bring a civil action against him for your rent monies.

If your tenant leaves the apartment you have a duty to safeguard his property for 30 days. If your tenant would not return for 30 days you could then sell his property.

Contact my office if you'd like to consult with an attorney to walk you through the proper steps.
