Nevada Foreclosure Law and Procedure

Here is a summary of foreclosure laws and rules for the State of Nevada:

  • Both a judicial and non-judicial foreclosure is available.
  • The foreclosure begins with filing the petition and recording of the notice of default.
  • It can take up to 116 days to process the documents and the date of publication must be published for 80 days.
  • If the foreclosure fails to generate sufficient proceeds to pay off what remained due on the loan, then the lender may sue for a deficiency within three months after the foreclosure sale.
  • A deed of trust sale gives the foreclosure purchaser clear title free of any right of redemption for the old borrower.
  • There is a one year redemption on judicial sales.
