Operative Text
1. A tenant who is aggrieved by a violation of subsection 6 or 7 of NRS 118A.200 may bring a civil action in any court of competent jurisdiction for such a violation. 2. If a tenant prevails in an action brought pursuant to subsection 1, the court shall award the tenant: (a) Any damages the tenant has sustained that the court deems appropriate; (b) Any equitable relief that the court deems appropriate; (c) The tenant’s costs in the action and reasonable attorney’s fees; and (d) Statutory damages of $250 for each violation which involved deception.
Under Nev. Rev. Stat. ch. 118A § 118A.405, when a landlord fails to meet the rent-disclosure requirements set out in NRS 118A.200(6) or (7), a tenant who is harmed by that failure has the right to sue in civil court. If the tenant wins, the court is directed to award actual damages, equitable relief, court costs, and reasonable attorney's fees. On top of those remedies, the court must also award $250 in statutory damages for each violation that involved deception.

Nev. Rev. Stat. ch. 118A § 118A.405 creates direct financial exposure for property owners who do not follow the periodic-rent disclosure rules in NRS 118A.200(6) and (7). Operators who stay compliant generally ensure that all required rent-amount disclosures are made accurately and without any misleading statements, since each deceptive violation can trigger a separate $250 statutory damages award on top of actual damages and attorney's fees. Maintaining clear, documented disclosure practices is a common approach among operators seeking to avoid liability under this provision.
