Property Management Services
General
Key PM covers all areas of the Las Vegas Valley, including Las Vegas, Henderson, and North Las Vegas. Our services extend to premier communities such as Summerlin, Green Valley, Centennial Hills, Southern Highlands, Spring Valley, Mountains Edge, and Silverado Ranch. (NV B.0050464.LLC / NV PM.0150464.BKR)
We troubleshoot most issues with the tenant but some work requires a professional. Your agreement outlines the parameters for maintenance approvals. When the cost of a repair is expected to exceed the stated limit, you will be contacted for your pre-approval, unless the work is deemed an emergency repair.
We know what works and what doesn't. We've developed a comprehensive marketing program that has worked well, leasing thousands of homes. One of our tactics includes extensive online advertising. We advertise with featured marketing services on realtor.com, zillow.com, Trulia.com, Hotpads.com, and homes.com, as well as over thirty more!
Often owners will set rents based on how much they need to cover their mortgage, on how much they want, or on what they heard another home is getting. These methods almost always create problems. Arriving at the appropriate rent level can be a complex process that must take many factors into account. This is one of those areas in which hands-on experience comes into play. Contact us today for a free and no obligation market rental analysis.
The owner is protected from damage to the property (on a small scale) by the security deposit charged upon move-in. Key PM also requires tenant liability insurance from the resident to cover large-scale issues and works with a third party collection company to collect on past due amounts owed by residents. We offer a third-party rent guarantee insurance as an optional coverage, please inquire with your property manager for more information.
Typical property management fees in the Las Vegas Valley generally range from 8% to 10% of the monthly rent, often accompanied by a tenant placement fee equal to half or a full month’s rent.
At Key PM, we offer a more competitive, value-driven approach for owners in Las Vegas, Henderson, and North Las Vegas:
Low Monthly Fees: Our management rates start as low as 5%, depending on the rental rate and property type.
No Upfront Costs: We charge zero setup fees to get your property onboarded.
Performance-Based Pay: We only collect fees when your property is leased and generating income—meaning we don’t get paid until you do.
Transparent Pricing: Our fees are straightforward and quoted on a per-property basis to ensure you get the best ROI for your Southern Nevada investment.
In Nevada, the eviction process for nonpayment of rent is primarily governed by the Summary Eviction process. This is designed to be faster than traditional civil lawsuits, provided property managers follow strict statutory timelines.
The 5-Step Nevada Eviction Process
Serve a 7-Day Notice to Pay or Quit
Once rent is late, you must serve the tenant a notice giving them 7 judicial days (excluding weekends and holidays) to either pay the full rent plus allowable late fees or vacate the premises.
Reference: NRS 40.253
Tenant Response Period
The tenant has three options during these 7 days:
Pay: You must accept the rent if offered in full during this window.
Vacate: The tenant moves out, and you regain possession.
Contest: The tenant files a Tenant's Affidavit with the court. This "Answer" triggers a court hearing and automatically stays the eviction until a judge rules.
Filing the Affidavit of Complaint
If the 7-day period expires and the tenant has neither paid, moved, nor filed an answer, you file an Affidavit of Complaint for Summary Eviction in the local Justice Court to request a formal eviction order.
The Court Hearing
If the tenant contested the notice, a hearing is usually scheduled within 5 to 10 days. You must bring evidence of the lease, the missed payments, and proof of service for the 7-day notice.
Execution of the Eviction (The Lockout)
If the judge rules in your favor, they will issue an Order for Summary Eviction. You deliver this to the Constable or Sheriff. They will post a 24-hour notice on the door before returning to physically change the locks and remove the tenant.
Late Fees: Cannot exceed 5% of the periodic rent (NRS 118A.210).
Diversion Programs: As of 2026, certain tenants (seniors 62+ or those on SSI disability) may be automatically diverted into the Eviction Diversion Program (EDP) if they contest the notice, which can delay the process while they seek rental assistance.
